Mechanical and fracture properties of concrete with recycled concrete aggregate...
Forero, J. A.; de Brito, J.; Evangelista, Luís; Pereira, C. H. F.The use of recycled aggregates, particularly concrete waste aggregate, has gained increasing popularity and has become current practice in day-to-day applications in many countries. Enhancing the physical and morphological characteristics of this type of aggregate is crucial to promote its widespread adoption. This study investigates the mechanical and fracture properties of concrete incorporating 100 % recycle...

On the development of a technical specification for the use of fine recycled ag...
Bravo, Miguel; Duarte, António P. C.; De Brito, Jorge; Evangelista, Luís; Pedro, DiogoThe possibility of using recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste (CDW) in concrete is rather widely agreed upon when it comes to the use of coarse recycled aggregates. However, this is not the case when fine recycled aggregates (FRA) are considered, as it is deemed that these seriously impair the behaviour of concrete. Hence, this work presents a technical specification proposal for the use o...
Mechanical behaviour of concrete made with fine recycled concrete aggregates
Evangelista, Luís; Brito, Jorge deThis paper concerns the use of fine recycled concrete aggregates to partially or globally replace natural fine aggregates (sand) in the production of structural concrete. To evaluate the viability of this process, an experimental campaign was implemented in order to monitor the mechanical behaviour of such concrete. The results of the following tests are reported: compressive strength, split tensile strength, m...
