This experimental study aims to advance sustainable construction practices by exploring the recycling potential of steel fibre reinforced concrete with 4D Dramix® fibres from the company Bekaert. In this research steel fibres from reinforced concrete specimens with varying fibre quantities of two 4D Dramix® fibre types, more precisely, the 55/50 BG and 65/50 BG fibres are recycled. A jaw crusher at the recycling company AC Materials (Flanders, Belgium) and an impact crusher at the research and development company CTP (Wallonia, Belgium) are employed to optimize the quantity and quality of the recycled fibres. Subsequently, the recycled steel fibres are reintegrated into fresh concrete mixes. The recycling process of the fibres results in a general decrease of the residual tensile strength capacity for the concrete mixtures with recycled fibres (RSFRC) compared to those with new fibres (NSFRC), and the deviation increases with increasing crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD). It was found that fibres recovered by the impact crushing process are (generally) shorter than those obtained from the jaw crusher, which results in a fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) with a somewhat lower post-cracking tensile strength. Nevertheless, most recycled fibres retain 75 % of their original capacity, considering the mean residual tensile strength of the FRC mixtures. Consequently, current findings show promising results for the recycling potential of steel fibres and the residual strength behaviour of RSFRC compared to NSFRC. Additionally, this study highlights the potential for an improved constitutive tensile model for FRC mixtures, where the design parameters ka and kc can be estimated based on the fR3k/fR1k-ratio.
