Strength evaluation of recycled-aggregate concrete byin-situ tests
Abstract Coarse and fine aggregates generated from crushed concrete products for new concrete can be generally accepted only when the properties of recycled aggregate concrete, in addition to the relationships between different properties of such a concrete, are well understood. The results of an experimental investigation into the relationship of compressive strength to ultrasonic pulse velocity and to rebound number is presented in this paper. It has been observed that for the water-cured concrete the strength-pulse velocity relationship is influenced by the use of the recycled aggregate. For the same value of the pulse velocity, the strength of recycled aggregate concrete is higher than that for the natural aggregate concrete. On the other hand, the strength-rebound number relationship is not affected by the aggregate type used. The combined method of pulse velocity and rebound number for strength estimation is also evaluated.
