Effect of Curing Conditions on Properties of Slag Cement Concrete Partially Replaced with Recycled Aggregates
Concrete is used in tremendous volume and plays a major role in a nation's economic growth. The augmentation in pace of industrialization and urbanization because of the concurrent growth in economy and populace utilizing concrete as the most primary construction material led to is expending the greatest measure of regular assets. Every year approximately 20 billion tons of raw materials are required for making concrete. Due to the vital scarcity of aggregates, the provision of demolished concrete to be used as recycled concrete is increasing. Re-utilizing is one way to deal with minimizing waste and gives different advantages including—limit transportation and age cost of imperatives, utilize waste that would be lost to neighborhood landfills, protect land territories in likely metropolitan turnarounds, support the general nature status and present countless garbage removals. A great number of researches have been performed to understand the nature of recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) and their effect on the strength, durability of Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). This investigation presents a test work on Recycled aggregate concrete by using Ordinary Portland (OPC) and Portland Slag Cement (PSC) with and without Nano-silica (NS) by partially replacing Natural Crushed aggregate with recycled coarse aggregate about 30% by weight. Concrete specimens of M20, M25, M30, M35 grades with NCA partially replaced with recycled coarse aggregate were tested for compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths at 7 and 28 days by varying water contents. The curing conditions were also varied by water curing.
