The preparation procedure of RCA is depicted in Fig. 1, and the basic properties are illustrated in Table 2. Natural river sand with good gradation serves as the fine aggregate (FA) in the experiment.
The constant and rapid increase in CDW generation and the usage of natural aggregate in concrete manufacturing are two of the biggest environmental problems facing the construction sector (Marinković et al., 2010). Using recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) made from CDWs is an option for a sustainable concrete. The utilization of RAC offers a ...
1. Background. Concrete is the most-used building material globally, with global consumption of about 12 billion tons annually [].Concrete generally comprises 10–20% cement, 70–80% natural aggregate (NA), and 5–10% water by mass [].The massive demand for concrete has led to the overexploitation of high-quality river sand and gravel.

Lightweight aggregate (LWA) is defined as solid substance with an apparent density of less than 2.0 g/cm 3 and a bulk density of less than 1.2 g/cm 3 1.LWAs are porous …
Solid waste used as aggregate can not only decrease the consumption of natural aggregates but also reduce the space for landfill treatment [19]. However, the former method has many disadvantages, such as the continuous leaching of hazardous substances from solid waste, which can jeopardize the building structure and the natural environment [20] .
In the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal, stone dust (aggregate) is used for construction. The parent rocks to which these stone dust (aggregate) are produced and their by-products are known to contain significant concentrations of primordial radionuclides 238 U, 232 Th, and 40 K of natural origin [Citation 17]. The presence of these ...
To promote the production and application of artificial aggregates, save natural sand resources and protect the ecological environment, we evaluated the feasibility of using spherical porous functional aggregates (SPFAs) formed by basalt saw mud under autoclave curing in ordinary structural concrete. In our work, two types of prewetted functional …
The largest single use of natural aggregates is in construction, and much of that aggregate is used in portland-cement concrete or bituminous mixes. Sand and gravel deposits are accumulations of durable rock fragments and mineral …
This is mainly because when WA is used as coarse aggregate to replace natural aggregate in the preparation of WARC, its own lightweight and high water absorption directly lead to the reduction of the compressive strength of WARC as the volume content of wood aggregate increases. Meanwhile, in the process of preparing WARC, the wood aggregate ...
