With the rapid growth in construction sector, it becomes all the more important to assess the amount of Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste being generated and analyze the practices needed to handle and use this waste before final disposal. This serves waste management and disposal issues, paving way to waste utilization in construction industry from the sustainability point of view. C&D waste constitutes a major bulk of total solid waste produced in the world. In this work, an attempt is made to study the performance of concrete using water soaked Recycled Coarse Aggregates (RCA) in replacement levels of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% to Natural Coarse Aggregates (NCA). Experiments were designed and conducted to study the performance of RCA based concrete. Further suitable performance enhancement techniques to RCA based concrete were attempted, to achieve compressive strength at least equal to or more than that for no RCA based concrete (control concrete). Performance enhancement study is reported here for 50% and 100% RCA based concretes. All four techniques attempted have given favorable results encouraging use of RCA based concretes with full replacement levels, to adopt RCA based concrete in structural applications, without any kind of concern to the stake holder. Further attempts have also been made to use Recycled Fine Aggregates (RFA) with appropriate modifications to serve as fine aggregates in mortar and concrete. Using RFA blended with river sand fractions as well as RFA with Iron Ore Tailings (IOT) fractions, have given good results to serve as fine aggregates to the extent of 100% replacement levels in mortars and concretes.

To examine the grinding effect through preheating of waste concrete as a way of retrieving coarse aggregates from waste concrete, the removal rates of cement mortar and paste of both recycled aggregates and heated and grinded ones were investigated. As the preheating temperature increased, the removal rate of cement mortar from waste concrete was raised, and this kind of removal hardly affected the abrasion rate and specific gravity of aggregates. On the other hand, when it was treated over 40$0^{\circ}C$ of preheating temperature, the absorptance was reduced to less than 2.17, and cement mortar was effectively separated from waste concrete. It could meet the Korean Standards on recycled aggregates for concrete, and it is expected to expand the scope of utilization by making it possible to retrieve the aggregates which have the properties close to natural aggregates.

폐콘크리트를 재활용하기 위하여 파쇄과정과 입도조절과정을 거쳐서 생산된 재생골재에는 모르타르나 시멘트페이스트가 많이 부착되어 있어 밀도가 낮고 흡수율이 높아 구조용 골재로 사용할 수 없는 실정이다. 그러나 생산된 재생골재 내에는 많은 양의 콘크리트용 재생골재가 포함되어 있으며 이들을 비중선별방법 중 중액선별을 통해 선별하여 콘크리트용 1종 재생골재를 약 45%정도를 생산할 수 있었다.

As the importance of recycled materials is being emphasized more in the Korean construction market, the production quality has been improved to a significantly high level. Compared to the high quality, however, there are used very limitedly. Among recycled construction materials, recycled aggregates produced through the retreatment of waste concrete are drawing attention because of lack of natural aggregate and heightened consciousness of resource saving and environmental protection and, as a consequence, they are close to natural aggregates in terms of production technology and quality. Despite the high quality and productivity, however,. the utilization of recycled aggregates is very low. Thus, in order to maximize the utility of recycled aggregates, the present study examined the usability of recycled aggregates using both recycled coarse aggregates and recycled fine aggregates together and derived optimal quantity and mixture ratio in the combined use of the two types of recycled aggregate.

The quantity of construction and demolition waste has been greatly increasing recently. It causes many problems to the environment. For this reason, demolition waste management becomes inevitable in order to overcome the environmental issues. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of using recycled coarse aggregate, which is generated from construction and demolition waste, on the properties of recycled aggregate concrete. An experimental investigation on the strength characteristics of concrete made with recycled coarse aggregate is presented and discussed in this paper. In this study, Portland Pozzolana Cement (fly ash based) is used instead of ordinary Portland cement. The results of this investigation show the possibility of the use of recycled coarse aggregates in the production of fresh concrete. Use of demolition waste as coarse aggregate will lead to a cleaner environment with a significant reduction of the consumption of natural resources. A comparative study on the strength characteristics of recycled aggregate concrete made with Ordinary Portland Cement and Portland Pozzolana Cement is presented and discussed in this paper.

Disposal of construction wastes poses major challenge to the municipal administration in the developing countries. At the same time new developments in these countries are unscrupulously exploiting the natural resources. The sustainable development requires judicious and careful utilization of natural resources. In this context, reuse of construction and demolition waste can save the global natural resources to greater extent. In this work the bricks and concrete waste from construction sites were crushed to the desired sizes and mixed in various proportions to study its properties in the concrete both in fresh and hardened states. Six mixes of natural and recycled aggregates were used to make the coarse aggregates for the concrete. From each mix nine cylinders were cast, which were tested at 7,14 and 28 days. The properties of concrete with recycled aggregates were compared with the control mix having natural aggregates. The nominal ratio of cement sand and coarse aggregates were kept at 1:2:4 by weight for all mixes. The tests have shown that concrete with recycled aggregates made from old concrete and brick bats provide greater opportunities for reuse of construction wastes in concrete.

건설폐기물의 재활용방법 중 하나는 폐콘크리트 재생골재를 도로포장재료로 활용하는 것이다. 하지만 재생골재에 대한 많은 연구와 기술개발에도 불구하고 생산공정에 포함된 이물질 때문에 실제 도로포장재료로의 적용은 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 재생골재내에 포함된 이물질의 특성에 따라 무기이물질과 유기이물질로 구분하였으며 , 각 이물질이 포장 공용성에 미치는 영향을 제시하였다. 또한 재생골재내에 포함된 무기이물질 함유량과 압축강도와의 관계, 유기이물질 함유량과 수정 CBR과의 상관관계를 통하여 도로포장층인 린콘크리트 기층과 보조기층에 적용 가능한 이물질 함량기준을 제시하였다. 린콘크리트 기층에는 무기이물질 함유량 질량비 10% 이하, 입상재료 보조기층에는 유기이물질 함유량 부피비 2% 이하일 때 재생골재를 포장에 적용 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

오늘날 대규모 건설사업에 따른 골재의 고갈과 환경보호 측면에서 폐콘크리트 순환골재의 재활용이 절실히 요구되고있다. 폐콘크리트 순환골재를 재활용한 폴리머 복합재료를 개발하기 위하여 순환골재의 치환율을 5단계로 변화시키고(0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) 또 폴리머-시멘트비도 5단계로 변화시켜(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%) 총 25종류의 공시체를 제조하였다. 공시체의 제 성능을 조사하기 위하여 공시체의 압축 및 휨강도, 흡수시험, 내열수성시험, 총세공량 및 공극률에 대하여 조사하였다. 시험결과, 폴리머 복합재료의 물성은 폴리머 시멘트비의 증가에 따라 현저히 증가되었으나 폐콘크리트 순환골재의 치환율 증가에 따라서는 크게 저하되었다.

Recent research is needed for the reduction of the pH of the recycled aggregates, recycled aggregates for alkali social problems have emerged. This was confirmed through preliminary experiments using a self-made reactor with dry ice, the possibility of reducing the pH of the recycled aggregates. The pH reduction of coarse recycled aggregates plant was made to apply the field to the middle of construction waste treatment process to reduce the pH of the plant room, and measured the pH change with time. The measurement results showed that dry ice after the reaction, the pH of the aggregate 5% reduction than untreated recycled aggregates.
