EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF POROUS CONCRETE WITH RECYCLED AGGREGATES

Performance of High-strength Concrete Made with Recycled Ceramic Aggregates

Recent scientific concerns to achieve sustainability in construction have suggested the implementation of using recycled aggregate in concrete because it has the potential to reduce the demand for extraction of natural raw materials and decrease the volume of wastes landfilled. In this respect, this study aims to investigate the suitability of using ceramic tile (CT) and ceramic sanitary (CS) w...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Compressive Strength Study on the Freeze-thaw Resistance of Recycled Aggregate Concrete Members

Results: The experiment results indicate that the type of recycled aggregate and its replacement ratio have significant effects on the freezethaw performance. The cubic compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is overall slightly lower than that of normal concrete. After 100 freeze-thaw cycles, the compressive strength decreases and the reduction extent increases with increasing repl...

Effects of Recycled Concrete Aggregates on Properties of Asphalt Concrete

In situ strength assessment of concrete using recycled aggregates by means of small diameter cores.

By increasing the demolition of old concrete structures and the interest of civil industries to consume cheaper materials, using Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) can cause environmental protection and decrease the construction costs. On the other hand, the high potential of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) in concrete industry was established by extensive experimental researches were performe...
