Effects of recycled aggregates on concrete compressive strength

Book Contribution - Book Chapter Conference Contribution

Sustainable construction is the major concern for environment and different techniques are being adapted to foster the goal of sustainability. This study aims to investigate the performance of crushed tested concrete samples obtained from the concrete research institutions. The concrete samples are crushed to achieve the aggregates that are used to prepare new samples and tested to examine compressive strength. The compressive strength of samples prepared with normal aggregates concrete (NAC) are compared to compressive strength of recycle aggregates (RAC) to create a conclusion. It was examined from the experimental results that recycle aggregates have the potential to replace the normal aggregates.
