0.2.1 The requirements for aggregates for mass concrete have been included and it is proposed to withdraw IS: 515-1959*when this standard is printed. 0.3 The limiting values for the permissible deleterious materials in the aggregates, aggregate abrasion value and soundness test for aggregates
Key points. • ‘Aggregate’ is a term for any particulate material. It includes gravel, crushed stone, sand, slag, recycled concrete and geosynthetic aggregates. Aggregate may be natural, manufactured or recycled. • Aggregates make up some 60 -80% of the concrete mix. They provide compressive strength and bulk to concrete.
Reclaimed asphalt pavement, reclaimed hydraulic cement concrete, glass, other reclaimed materials, and slag materials shall not be used. When reclaimed materials are permitted by this specification or specified in the Contract Documents, they shall be homogeneously blended. When reclaimed hydraulic cement concrete is permitted, it shall not contain
Recycled aggregates are produced from recycled materials which include recycled concrete, brick and masonry. Can be a single sized material typically 20 mm, 14 mm, 10 mm or 7 mm. Fine Aggregate is aggregate less than 5 mm. Coarse Aggregate is normally greater than 5 mm. Can be a single sized material or a graded aggregate consisting of a blend

Recycled aggregate is produced by crushing concrete, and sometimes asphalt, to reclaim the aggregate. Recycled aggregate can be used for many purposes. The primary market is road base. For information on recycling asphalt pavement into new asphalt pavement. See Asphalt Pavement Recycling.

The processing of concrete waste employed a jaw-hammer crusher and a sieve, producing three types of Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA). After their characterization, RCA was incorporated in two types of concrete used in the precast factory: a flowing concrete (FC), slump 220 mm, employed in columns and beams; and the second one, a no-slump extruded concrete (NSC), used for hollow core slabs.
A series of 30 mm × 30 mm × 20 mm concrete specimens were prepared with 42.5-MPa Portland cement and river sand. The water to cement ratio was 0.5, while the sand to binder ratio was 2.5. As a control, the recycled aggregates before and after modification were both applied respectively.

Fine recycled aggregates samples originated from the ceramic and concrete recycling process and coming from two recycling plants of Madrid region have been used. Tests were performed using 1:3:0.5 volumetric cement-to-aggregate-to-water ratio.
🕑 Reading time: 1 minute The aggregates used in the production of concrete are inert granular materials such as gravel, crushed stone, sand, slag, recycled concrete, and geosynthetic aggregates. The aggregates may be natural, manufactured, or recycled. Fig 1: Aggregates used in production of concrete. The aggregates are broadly classified into two types based on […]
Mechanical properties of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) such as compaction and California bearing ratio (CBR) are important for application as unbound road base and subbase materials. Limited studies, however, have examined the effects of the nominal maximum particle diameter (Dmax) of aggregates and fines content (Fc; < 0.075 mm). Also, particle rearrangement and breakage depend on water
Recycling of concrete is a simple process. It involves breaking, removing, and crushing existing concrete into a material with a specified size and quality. As per study about 75 to 80% of total construction material consist coarse aggregate portion. When the structure is demolished, the waste concrete in a large quantity is produced.
The results of a test programme to study the use of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) in high-strength, 50 N/mm 2 or greater, concrete are described. The effects of coarse RCA content on the ceiling strength, bulk engineering and durability properties of such concretes have been established.

So recycled concrete aggregate is not a hindrance to structural concrete members. Benefits of using recycled concrete instead of natural rock aggregate Save costs- the RCA concrete is much cheaper than the conventional concrete aggregate so that you can lay down a firm base or foundation with less sum of money.

Polyrok concrete is the latest innovation from Replas, a sustainable recycled plastic aggregate alternative to mineral aggregate in concrete for pathways, kerbs & channels that find a home for the most problematic waste stream, soft plastic. Polyrok consists of about 95% Red Group post-consumer soft plastic waste with about 5% engineered
Recycled concrete can be used as aggregate in new concrete, particularly the coarse portion. When using the recycled concrete as aggregate, the following should be taken into consideration: Recycled concrete as aggregate will typically have higher absorption and lower specific gravity than natural aggregate and will produce concrete with slightly higher drying shrinkage and creep.

aggregate concrete ,the slump test was about 1.0cm slump for 60 % coarse recycled aggregate concrete and increases as the percent of recycled aggregate decreases . The compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete with 60 % recycled aggregate, is about 76 % of natural aggregate concrete. The compressive strength increases as the
