Use of recycled c&d wastes in unpaved rural and forest roads feasibility analysis

Pereira, PM; Ferreira, FB; Castorina Silva Vieira; Lopes, ML; Maria de Lurdes Lopes; Fernanda Ferreira; Paulo Pereira

In recent years, environmental sustainability concerns associated with over exploitation of natural resources along with the need to manage large volumes of wastes have propelled the development and implementation of waste recycling and valorisation strategies in the construction sector. In particular, Construction and Demolition (C&D) wastes have been recognised by the European Commission as a priority stream ...


Pullout behaviour of geosynthetics in a recycled construction and demolition ma...

Castorina Silva Vieira; Fernanda Ferreira; Paulo Pereira; Maria de Lurdes Lopes

In recent years, the use of construction and demolition (C&D) materials as alternative aggregates in geotechnical engineering applications, such as embankments, pavement subbase layers and geosynthetic-reinforced structures has raised increasing attention from researchers and practitioners worldwide. On the other hand, geosynthetics, particularly geogrids and high strength geotextiles, are used as a reinforceme...

Castorina Silva Vieira; Paulo Pereira; Fernanda Ferreira; Maria de Lurdes Lopes

In recent years, environmental concerns related to the overexploitation of natural resources and the need to manage large amounts of wastes arising from construction activities have intensified the pressure on the civil engineering industry to adopt sustainable waste recycling and valorisation measures. The use of recycled construction and demolition (C&D) wastes as alternative backfill for geosynthetic-reinfor...

Castorina S. Vieira; Paulo Pereira

In recent years environmental sustainability has demanded a progressive increase of waste recycling in general and waste value-added utilisation in the construction industry in particular. As regards the application of construction and demolition wastes (C&DW) in geotechnical works, it has been noticed that the use of recycled aggregates is found mostly in road construction. Value-added utilisation of C&DW in g...

Castorina Silva Vieira; Paulo Pereira; Maria de Lurdes Lopes

Over the last years the environmental sustainability has been demanding a progressive increase in the waste valorisation in construction industry. Although some studies have been carried out on the application of recycled Construction and Demolition Wastes (C&DW), their purposes are mainly the production of aggregates for use in concrete and in base layers of transportation infrastructures. As regards the appli...

Over the last years the environmental sustainability has been demanding a progressive increase in the waste recycling in general and in the waste valorisation in construction industry, in particular. Some studies and applications of recycled construction and demolition wastes (C&DW) have been performed mainly related to the production of aggregates for use in concrete and in base layers of transport infrastruct...
