A Study on the Recycled Fine Aggregate and Properties of Mortar by the Acid Treatment

산처리에 의한 순환잔골재의 품질과 모르타르의 특성에 관한 연구

This study is intended for how to utilize the recycled fine aggregate which is produced by concrete wastes. It analyzes the quality of the fine aggregate which is reproduced through the acid treatment process, and comprehends the characteristics of mortar using the recycled fine aggregate to review whether it can be put to practical use for concrete. The conclusion of the study are as follows 1. The recycled fine aggregate through the acid treat shows the low rate of absorption and high density. 2. Compared to the mortar made from acid liquid precipitated recycled fine aggregate, using nature water precipitated one reduces the flow. 3. The compressive strength of mortar using recycled fine aggregate tends to be reduced according to the kind of precipitated water. Based on the above results, the recycled fine aggregate through the acid treatment process satisfies the quality standards of the first-grade recycled fine aggregate of KS F 2573 (recycled fine aggregate for concrete) but it is concluded that the recycled fine aggregate through the acid treatment process can not used as fine aggregate used concrete because it has destructive characteristics when the mortar is produced
