Experimental Investigation on Ternary Blended Recycled Aggregate Concrete Using Glass Fibers

The demand for sustainable construction materials has driven the exploration of various innovative approaches to enhance properties concrete reducing its environmental impact. present study examines effects incorporating recycled aggregate (RCA), slag cement, alccofine, and glass fibers into mixtures. In study, it been observed that (RCA) exhibits inferior properties, including higher water absorption poorer performance, when compared natural coarse aggregate. Various replacement levels RCA were utilized in this assess impact on performance. Alccofine, a supplementary cementitious material, is used partially replace binding material. Additionally, added flexural tensile behavior concrete. mixtures designed meet required strength durability specifications. A comprehensive testing program was conducted evaluate fresh hardened slump cone test performed assessing workability For concrete, compressive strength, split are evaluated. results demonstrated RCA, improved mechanical properties. use led reduction resource consumption, namely On other hand, generated demolition (C&D) waste effectively. Portland cement (PSC) alccofine (A) long-term addition significantly enhanced performance resulting crack resistance overall This introduces novel concept by exploring potential utilization aggregate, combination as high-performance components Previous research not extensively studied materials, making unique approach. These findings contribute development eco-friendly practices provide insights engineers, researchers, practitioners aiming incorporate construction.
