Abstract

The interpretation of the performance of self-compacting concrete made with distinct proportion of coarse recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) exposed to sodium sulphate solution (50 gram/litre) under fully immersion condition is studied in this paper. Compressive and tensile strength development/degradation, mass change and length change under sulphate attack was surveyed for all tested units. According to the results it can be conclude that the use of coarse recycled concrete aggregate does not affect the development of strength of concrete with respect to natural material mixtures. It also conclude that for producing of sustainable and green concrete, the quality of used coarse recycled concrete aggregate is an important factor. The differ proportion of coarse recycled concrete aggregate & duration of immersion of concrete in sulphate solution also affect the concrete properties. Reusing recycled combination has twin property benefits: benefiting many tons dismantled concrete worldwide and conserving natural aggregates.
