Performance Evaluation of Concretes by using Recycled Aggregate - Vol.94(1), Jan - Thane ACC LTD 2020 - 51-57p.

In the present study, concrete is made with replacing sand by recycled fine aggregate in different water cement ratios (0.45, 0.50, and 0.55). Mechanical and durability properties of fine recycled aggregate concrete have been evaluated. The results showed that, reduction of compressive and tensile strength while using fine recycled concrete aggregate (FRCA) as fine aggregate when compared to natural aggregate concrete. The percentage of water absorption for FRCA based concrete mixes is higher when compared to conventional mixes. And also, it is observed that depth of penetration of water and rapid chloride permeability of FRAC were higher when compared with concrete having river sand as fine aggregate.
