EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THE PROPERTIES OF RECYCLED COARSE AGGREGATE CONCRETE

Abstract: Theaimofthisexperimentalworkistofindthe properties of recycled coarse aggregate. For this purpose, NaturalCoarseAggregate(NCA)isreplacedwithRecycled CoarseAggregate(RCA)10%,20%and30%forM25grade concrete mix respectively. The RCA is obtained from the demolishedwaste.Cementispartiallyreplacedwithsilica flume and GGBS 10%&20% each separately. This study summarizes the effect or influence of recycled coarse aggregateonworkabilityandmechanicalpropertiessuchas compressive strength, Rebound Hammer and Ultrasonic PulseVelocityforM25gradeofconcrete.

Keywords: - Recycled aggregate replacement of natural coarse aggregates, Silica fume and GGBS replacement of cement.

1. INTRODUCTION

AsthecementindustryreleasesasignificantamountofCO2 intotheatmosphere,sustainabilityofconstructionmaterials, particularlyconcrete,isthemostfrequentlydiscussedtopic worldwideatthemomentandwillcontinuetobesointhe future. There are two distinct phases in which cement production results in the emission of CO2 into the atmosphere.Oneisaccomplishedthroughthecalcinationof calciumcarbonates,andtheotherisaccomplishedthrough theburningofcoalsasasourceofenergyfortheproduction ofcement.

Whilecementonlymakesupasmallportionoftheconcrete's volume, the coarse and fine aggregates make up the majority roughly 75 to 80 percent. As a result of rapid industrialization and urbanization, there is an annual increaseinthedemandforaggregatesandcementusedin concrete around the world. However, there are troubling indicationsofalackofnaturalaggregatessources,whichmay result in future shortages. On the other hand, a lot of constructionanddemolition(C&D)wasteismadewhennew buildingsarebuiltandoldonesaretakendown,whichcauses problemswithlandfillsallovertheworld.

Globally,theconstructionanddemolitionindustriesusealot of natural resources and dump a lot of construction and

demolition debris in landfills. Not only are these methods harmful tothe environment,but theyare also regardedas unsustainable. Quarrying activities harm the environment andoveruseofaggregatesinconcreteproductionresultsin overexploitationofnaturalaggregates.RecycledAggregates (RA)asaviablesourceofstructuralmaterialhaverekindled interest as a result. Reused totals, acquired from neighborhood development and destructionsquander, not just lessens the utilization of essential regular assets yet additionallyworksonthemanageabilitybydecreasingthe utilizationofsignificantlandfillspace.

3.1 SILICA FUME

Microsilica,alsoknownassilicafume,isabyproductof making ferrosilicon alloys or silicon metal. It is a fine powdersubstancethatrangesinsizefrom0.1to5microns and is mostly composed of amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO2).Duetoitshighsurfacearea-to-volumeratioandhigh reactivity,silicafumeisanexcellentpozzolanicmaterial.
