STRENGTHENING OF SUBGRADE SOIL BY USING CRUSHED CONCRETE

Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 12

Abstract

Recycled aggregates consist of crushed, graded inorganic particles processed from the material that have been used in the constructions and demolition debris. The target of the present work is to determine the strength characteristic of recycled aggregates for the application in concrete pavement construction. The investigation was carried out by using workability test, compressive strength test, flexural strength test and sulphate resistance test. A total of five mixes with replacement of coarse aggregates with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% recycled coarse aggregates were studied. The water cement ratio was kept constant at 0.38. It was observed that workability of concrete was decreased with the increase in recycled aggregates in concrete
