Özet
There are several environmental, economic, and energy reasons why RC is gaining popularity around the world. Key environmental problems include the potential for groundwater contamination due to the washing out of fresh concrete brought back from project sites, as well as the loss of natural sources of high-quality aggregate materials. The RC concrete (RCA) impact on the fundamental characteristics of traditional concrete is investigated besides the effect of different ratio effects of water-cement (w/c). The concrete as crushed rubble obtained from several Iraqi demolition sites and landfills is utilized to examine the properties of (RCA). This work utilized sand as natural, and concrete as crushed from various sources as aggregates around Baghdad city. A total of forty-five concrete mixtures were cast into nine groups. Groups were created to examine the impact of recycled coarse aggregate (CA) quality/content, dosage of cement, and w/c ratio. Strengths of compressing and splitting, and modulus of elastic tests were conducted. The findings demonstrated that the concrete rubble (CR) may be turned into recycled aggregate (RC) and utilized in the concrete manufacturing with qualities adequate for the vast majority of structural concrete applications in Iraq. Furthermore, the concrete strength has decreased by 6% to 30%, depending on the proportion of RC utilized to replace natural aggregate and the w/c ratio.
