Influence of mixing approaches on strength and durability properties of treated recycled aggregate concrete
Recycled aggregate (RA) acknowledge with its inferior quality due to high water absorption and lower strength which is mainly due to presence of attached adherent mortar. Concrete made with RA have lower strength and durability properties when compared with natural aggregate concrete (NAC), recorded by many previous researches in past. In order to overcome these difficulties, two‐stage mixing approach (TSMA) is a good tool to improve the properties of recycled aggregate concrete when compared with normal mixing approach (NMA). The main objective of present research work is to study the influence of mixing approaches on concrete made with treated recycled aggregate (TRA). Basically the workability, mechanical and durability properties of concrete have been studied at fresh and hardened state. In this work, four different types of mixing approaches (viz. NMA, TSMA, TSMA1, and TSMA2) were used. In all types of mixing approaches, the natural aggregate was replaced with TRA at different replacement levels viz.: 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% in a control mix of M40 grade. Based on the experimental results the workability, strength, and durability properties of concrete made with TRA were improved in TSMA2 when compared with all other mixing approaches.
