Abstract:
Pore structure plays an important role in the drying shrinkage of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). High-precision mercury intrusion and water evaporation were utilized to study the pore structure of RAC, which has a different replacement rate of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), and to analyze its influence on drying shrinkage. Finally, a fractal-dimension calculation model was established based on the principles of mercury intrusion and fractal-geometry theory. Calculations were performed to study the pore-structure fractal dimension of RAC. Results show the following. (1) With the increas

Abstract The present study deals with recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) performance against impact loads. The drop weight test determines RAC’s strength and impact energy absorption capacity. Recycled concrete aggregates (RCAs) with different qualities (physical and mechanical properties) are used to prepare the RAC mix. The RAC is treated with three different mechanical treatments with varying charges and drum revolutions. It is observed that quality improvisation in RCA improves RAC impact resistance. A strong correlation between the RCA abrasion value and the RAC impact energy is observed,

In this study, the aim was to use different types of fibers to improve the impact resistance of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) that normally shows poor performance against mechanical impacts compared to normal concrete (NC). For this purpose, 18 groups of concrete were cast using different parameters. The study examined different types of concrete mixtures where the proportion of RCA (recycled coarse aggregate) used was 30% and 50% respectively, and where steel fiber-reinforcement was used in proportions of 1% and 2%, and polypropylene fiber-reinforcement was used in proportions of 0.1%.

Background: The aim of our study was to investigate the presence and mutual relationships of coronary vessels within the right atrial appendage (RAA) vestibule. Methods: We examined 200 autopsied hearts. The RAA vestibule was cross-sectioned along its isthmuses (superior, middle, and inferior). Results: The right coronary artery (RCA) was present in 100% of the superior RAA isthmuses but absent in 2.0% of hearts within the middle isthmus and in 6.5% of hearts within the inferior RAA isthmus. Its diameter was quite uniform along the superior (2.6 ± 0.8 mm), middle (2.9 ± 1.1 mm), and inferior (

Abstract The high demand for natural aggregates as concrete mixtures can cause ecological imbalance. Concrete waste can be reused as aggregate material in new construction. Recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) are disturbed due to crushing, resulting in weakening of the original aggregate or attached mortar, but there is a possibility of having the potential for unhydrated cement grains (UCG). Water from the new mixture is expected to revive the hydration potential in the RCA so that the Interfacial transition zone (ITZ) area is reduced and the quality of the old mortar is increased for use in n

In this paper, the characteristics of corrosion-induced cracks and the steel corrosion depth of C-RAC beams were investigated through the accelerated corrosion test.

Recycling concrete not only reduces the use of virgin aggregate but also decreases the pressure on landfills.

The experimental research presented in this paper was performed to investigate the flexural behavior of corroded reinforced RAC beams compared to that of corroded reinforced natural aggregate concrete (NAC) beams and consequently explore the possibility of using RAC beams in cor

The primary element impacting the quality of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is the mortar paste that adheres to the natural aggregate (NA). The cement mortar adhered to recycled concrete aggregate exhibits higher porosity and water absorption levels, along with reduced strength compared to natural aggregate.
