  • Recycled Concrete Aggregate: Influence of Aggregate Pre-Saturation and Curing Conditions on the Hardened Properties of Concrete
    RECYCLED CONCRETE AGGREGATE: INFLUENCE OF AGGREGATE PRE-SATURATION AND CURING CONDITIONS ON THE HARDENED PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE by Daniel Pickel A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Civil Engineering Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2014 © Daniel Pickel 2014 AUTHOR`S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is a construction material, which is being used in the Canadian construction industry more frequently than it was in the past. The environmental benefits associated with RCA use, such as reduced landfilling and natural aggregate (NA) quarrying, have been identified by industry and government agencies. This has resulted in some incentives to use RCA in construction applications. Some properties of RCA are variable and as a result the material is often used as a structural fill, which is a low risk application. The use of RCA in this application is beneficial from an overall sustainability perspective but may not represent the most efficient use of the material. Efficient use of a material means getting the most benefit possible out of that material in a given application. The initial step in efficient material use is evaluating how a material affects its potential applications. In the case of RCA, this includes its use in concrete as a coarse aggregate.

  • Recycled Aggregates in Concrete Production: Engineering Properties and Environmental Impact
    MATEC Web of Conferences 101, 05021 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/ matecconf/201710105021 SICEST 2016 Recycled aggregates in concrete production: engineering properties and environmental impact Mohammed Seddik Meddah* Department of Civil & Architectural Engineering, Sultan Qaboos University, 123 Al-Khod, Oman Abstract: Recycled concrete aggregate is considered as the most abundant and used secondary aggregate in concrete production, other types of solid waste are also being used in concrete for specific purposes and to achieve some desired properties. Recycled aggregates and particularly, recycled concrete aggregate substantially affect the properties and mix design of concrete both at fresh and hardened states since it is known by high porosity due to the adhered layer of old mortar on the aggregate which results in a high water absorption of the recycled secondary aggregate. This leads to lower density and strength, and other durability related properties. The use of most recycled aggregate in concrete structures is still limited to low strength and non-structural applications due to important drop in strength and durability performances generated. Embedding recycled aggregates in concrete is now a current practice in many countries to enhance sustainability of concrete industry and reduce its environmental impacts. The present paper discusses the various possible recycled aggregates used in concrete production, their effect on both fresh and hardened properties as well as durability performances. The economic and environmental impacts of partially or fully substituting natural aggregates by secondary recycled aggregates are also discussed. 1 Introduction future and should be addressed as early as possible.

  • Recycled Concrete Usage in Aggregrate Materials
    Washington State Department of Transportation State Construction Office RECYCLED CONCRETE USAGE IN AGGREGATE MATERIALS 2016 ANNUAL REPORT February 14th, 2017 RECYCLED CONCRETE USAGE IN AGGREGATE MATERIALS SUMMARY Engrossed Substitute House Bill (ESHB) 1695 passed the Washington State Legislature in 2015. Section 3 of the Bill requires the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to develop and establish objectives and strategies for the reuse and recycling of construction aggregate and recycled concrete materials. New language was added to RCW 70.95.805 that requires WSDOT to “specify and annually use a minimum of twenty-five percent construction aggregate and recycled concrete materials on its cumulative transportation, roadway, street, highway and other transportation infrastructure projects” unless construction aggregate and recycled concrete materials are not readily available or cost-effective. The Bill also required that “The department of transportation and its implementation partners must collaboratively develop and establish objectives and strategies for the reuse and recycling of construction aggregate and recycled concrete materials.” As a first step in addressing these requirements, WSDOT established a core group of implementation partners to assist with the effort. The implementation partners were carefully selected to ensure representation from all the key stakeholders affected by this legislation. The implementation team included the following individuals: Scott Ayers – Graham Construction Jimmy Blais – Gary

Abstract: Recently, there has been increased use of calcium-nitrite and calcium-nitrate as the main components of chloride- and alkali-free anti-freezing agents to promote concrete hydration in cold weather concreting. As the amount of nitrite/nitrate-based accelerators increases, the hydration of tricalcium aluminate (C3A phase) and tricalcium silicate (C3S phase) in cement is accelerated, thereby improving the early strength of cement and effectively preventing initial frost damage. Nitrite/nitrate-based accelerators are used in larger amounts than usual in low temperature areas ◦ below −10 C. However, the correlation between the hydration process and strength development in concrete containing considerable nitrite/nitrate-based accelerators remains to be clearly identified.

  • Effect of Recycled Coarse Aggregate Manufactured from Different Industry
    Effect of recycled coarse aggregate manufactured from different industry waste with mineral admixtures on the fresh and hardened properties of concrete Vimalkumar N Patel1, C D Modhera2, Krunali Savalia3 1Research Scholar, Applied mechanics department, S V National institute of technology, Surat (India) 2Professor, applied mechanics department, S V National institute of technology, Surat (India) 3Assistant Professor, Civil engineering department, Government engineering college, Rajkot (India) ABSTRACT In countries like India and elsewhere, the natural aggregate resources had already reached at alarming rate due to day by day high demand of construction activities in recent years. On the other hand, million tons of construction and demolition (C&D) residues and ceramic wastes are generated which are having hazardous effect on environment. These wastes can be utilized as a partial replacement of natural coarse aggregate in concrete and desired mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete can be achieved with the added use of mineral admixtures. Result shows that at 30% replacement level, compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is decreased by only 10% which is not significantly different than that of natural aggregate concrete and with 7.5% replacement of cement by Metakaolin can achieve the compressive and tensile strength of optimized recycled aggregate concretes same as that of Natural aggregate concrete. Keywords: Recycled aggregates, Construction and demolition (C&D) waste aggregate, ceramic waste aggregate, Metakaolin I INTRODUCTION The use of natural aggregates in concrete leads to high environmental impacts firstly because of the amount of emissions of CO2 produced during their extraction and secondly because of the depletion of natural resources that this activity implies [1].
