Abstract

Concrete recycling has gained a lot of attention recently in an effort to lessen the material's harmful effects on the environment. Using concrete from construction and demolition debris as a recycled aggregate in fresh concrete can help achieve sustainability in civil construction. For structural applications, a number of studies have used coarse recycled material in concrete beams. The focus of this review is on studies that looked at the shear behavior of concrete beams made from recycled aggregate without shear reinforcement. A number of parameters linked to the mechanical properties and structural behavior of recycled aggregate concrete are evaluated based on experimental and numerical results. Computational methods adopted for shear capacity of recycled concrete beams without stirrups were also assessed. The current study offers fresh perspectives in this area of study, which helps to encourage the responsible usage of recycled aggregate in civil engineering applications.
