The test includes three parts: in the first part, the physical properties of coarse aggregate are taken as the research object, the effective water absorption, apparent density and crushing index of coarse aggregate are taken as variables; in the second part, the compressive strength of cement mortar is taken as the …
Recycled aggregate comes primarily from PCC and AC from road rehabilitation and maintenance, demolition, and leftover batches of AC and PCC. After processing, the rocks retain bits of cement or asphalt. A roadway is built in several layers: pavement, base, and sometimes subbase. The pavement is the surface layer, and is made of PCC or AC.
The aggregate crushing value is an essential index in the construction of road bases and is defined as the mass percentage of fine particles after a confined compression test of recycled CDW. In this study, experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to evaluate the crushing characteristics of the CDW, consisting of three …
Among them, the studies of Ref. [14] evaluated the use of RA obtained by crushing RMC waste that was deposited without adequate treatment and concluded that for the lowest strength level (17 MPa), the replacement of up to 50% of the aggregate provides concrete with an average compressive strength only 10% lower than that of conventional …
The recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is widely applied in existing engineering, due to the great economy and environmental protection. However, there are several disadvantages of RAC: complex existing mix design methods, lower strength, and brittleness. This chapter initially presents a simple mixed design method.
The strengthening of recycled aggregates is a critical issue, as the low strength of recycled aggregates is the main reason that limits their widespread use. The slurry coating method can strengthen the recycled aggregates by repairing the aggregate surface, but it is hard to improve the internal strength due to the existence of pores and …

Aggregate crushing test. The strength of the aggregate can be assessed by conducting this test. The aggregate crushing value gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. Size of recycled aggregates taken for conducting test was between 12.5mm and 10mm.
In addition, water absorption refers to the amount of water absorbed by aggregate voids, and the results are illustrated in Fig. 4. While, crushing value gives a relative measure of the crushing resistance of the aggregate under the gradually applied compressive load, and the results are. Conclusions
