An Experimental Study on Concrete by Replacement of Coarse Aggregate with Demolished Building Waste in Crushed Concrete
Abstract: A large amount of construction and demolition wastes are produced annually in India. These waste materials require a large place to dispose and then the disposal of wastes has become a severe problem. The continuous use of natural resources for making conventional concrete leads to the reduction in their availability and results in the increase of the cost of the coarse aggregate and fine aggregate. The possible use of recycling …
