The construction field has contributed to environmental degradation, producing a high amount of and demolition waste (C&D waste) consuming large volumes natural resources. In this context, recycled concrete (RC) been recognised as means preserve resources reduce space for storage. During the last decades, many researchers have developed works studying different properties. This review focuses on structural RC made with coarse aggregate from waste. main objective is provide state art...
The effect of incorporating bottom ash from municipal solid waste incineration (MIBA) as partial replacement for fly (FA) (0%, 15% and 30%) was studied on alkali-activated mortars under two curing environments: conventional climatic chamber (∼0.04% CO2) carbonation (5% CO2). microstructural characterization showed that the use MIBA resulted in a decrease calcium silicate hydrate gel (C–S–H) sodium aluminosilicate (N-A-S-H) observed "rounded growths" worsening macrostructural behaviour...
This paper provides a literature review and analysis of the various influencing aspects related to use recycled aggregates, sourced from construction demolition waste, on chloride ion penetration concrete. A statistical effect incorporating increasing amounts aggregates different type, size, class migration total charge passed concrete is also presented. The presents relationship between these properties corresponding compressive strength. results show strong correlations parameters, which...
The influence of waste cellulose acetate (CA) fibres in the physico-mechanical (i.e. density, surface hardness - Shore C, flexural and compressive strength) thermal properties conductivity coefficient) gypsum-based composites was evaluated this study. Furthermore, complementary stereomicroscopy scanning electron microscopy analysis were carried out. Lighter obtained with ensuing incorporation CA fibres. In comparison to control material, an improvement on strength, up ∼9 % ∼1 %, respectively...
Recycled aggregates (RAs) have been playing an important role in replacing natural (NAs) concrete production, thereby contributing to a reduction the extraction of resources and promotion circular economy. However, it is assess global impacts this replacement, both environmental economic terms. In study, overview production recycled presented, using life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology. Through methodology, products with same function are compared information about best solutions given,...
