Abstract
This study also investigates the effectiveness of multiple surface modification of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) with respect to mechanical properties of the resultant recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) when exposed to various curing conditions, namely, normal water (Nw) and seawater (Sw). The properties included compressive and flexural strength and impact resistance. Findings show that effect inclusion of the treated coarse RCA is significant in enhancing the mechanical properties of RAC. The exposure to Sw appears to affect the degradation of the compressive strength of RAC remarkably in a marine environment. In this case, however, using of treated RCA is found beneficial in decreasing the deterioration in the compressive strength of RAC.
