Abrasion resistance, compressive strength and elasticity modulus of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) included lower quality recycled aggregate with and without silica fumeBy Özgür Çakır, Hasan Dilbas
Abstract: The usage of recycled aggregate (RA) for concrete works is spreading for gaining wide acceptance around the world, and total amount of RA utilized in concrete industry increases day-by-day. RA is used in many concrete products, such as concrete interlocking blocks, pavements, etc. One of the physical causes of concrete deterioration is surface wear or loss of mass for concrete products which are especially exposed to vehicular traffic (i.e., industrial …

Fracture and Failure of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) – A ReviewBy Hasan Dilbas, Özgür Çakır
Abstract: In the world, many countries put into effect the renewal plans and/or the laws and/or the regulations for recent engineering structures which have reached their lifetime, are risk prone and have been built lacking quality engineering, or without considering urban planning. Hence, many structures are demolished and this situation increases the amount of construction and demolition waste (C & DW). Also, resource consumptions are rapidly increased due to excessive constructional …
