Recycled Coarse Aggregate
Prof. Neha (Research Scholar), Dr. Sudisht Mishra and Dr. Rajeev Goel, review and explore the advantages and disadvantages of recycled concrete aggregate so that further implications for improvement and enhancements level can be identified.
A review was carried out on the recycled concrete aggregate obtained from the construction and demolition waste. This research is on the properties of RCA, its effects on the properties of concrete as a material, and its impact on the strength of structural members on a very large scale. In general, RCA is used for secondary purposes due to adhering mortar to recycled concrete aggregate. RCA possesses a higher porous and higher absorption with lowering the strength criteria in respect of mechanical and durability as compared to conventional aggregate.
