A Study on the Effect of Surface-Treated Coarse Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) on the Compressive Strength of Concrete
This paper reports the experimental works performed to improve the properties of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) by using different acid molarities at low concentration as agent for surface treatment. The effects of using RCA after treatment on the improvement in the strength of concrete were evaluated and compared. The findings reveal that this treatment can enhance the physical and mechanical properties of RCA. Moreover, treated RCA particles can significantly promote surface contact between the new cement paste and the aggregate, thereby improving the strength of concrete.
