Abstract

Due to the increasing cost and demand for the conventional materials, there is a huge necessity in using alternative materials for the production of concrete. The alternative materials that are used should be reliable as well as eco-friendly. Recycled concrete can be used as an aggregate in structures without affecting the strength and performance of the conventional concrete. The waste concrete removed from RMC plant, construction debris can be recycled. It should be crushed and treated well before using it in the new concrete. Recycled aggregate concrete would save the resource and cost of the project thus, protecting the environment. The ultimate goal of the present experimental studies is to achieve the strength by fully replacing the natural coarse aggregate with recycled aggregate. Further the reinforced concrete beams are made with recycled aggregate concrete with different percentage of steel and its behavior will be studied under static and cyclic loading
