Abstract
As the natural resources are very limited and demand for these are increasing day by day it has become a major issue nowadays. Hence due to all these major issues it has become very important to reuse and recycle the demolition concrete so that cost and energy can be saved. recycled aggregates can be obtained very easily and the cost is also very cheaper than normal aggregates. so in order to produce environment friendly concrete recycled aggregate concrete must be introduced.Concrete is the mostly used material in all engineering works. As concrete consists of 70% to 80% of aggregates for construction work so it will be very beneficial to recycle natural aggregates to solve the environmental problems and issues. The problem regarding waste material is increasing day by day so use of recycled aggregates is the solution for this problem. Cost of recycled aggregates is 20 to 30% less than natural aggregates and the consumption of natural aggregates can be reduced by using recycled aggregates. It is very easy to obtain recycle aggregates. they can be obtained from any demolition site, or from any construction industry.
