Abstract

This paper studied different size-distribution of recycled coarse aggregates by fractal theory. Cement Stabilized Recycled Aggregate Mixture were prepared by different fractal rate aggregate gradations and the unconfined compressive strength at 7 d and 28 d of the materials were tested. The results showed that the unconfined compressive strength at 7 d and 28 d of the materials with recycled coarse aggregate were higher than the one with natural aggregate when coarse aggregate gradations were same. The higher source rock strength of recycled coarse aggregate was, the larger base material strength was. Generally, the increase of fractal dimension is conducive to the growth of strength. The base materials performances of the same fractal dimension were different when the max particle size was different. So the fractal dimension of recycled coarse aggregate must be determined by maximum particle size.
