Mirjana Malešev, et al., Properties of recycled aggregate concrete Contemporary Materials, V −2 (2014) Page 241 of 249 aggregate is usually left out, in a way that it is completely replaced by the river sand [4,5]. Figure 3
The simple act of recycling the concrete reduces the amount of material that must be landfilled. The concrete itself becomes aggregate and any embedded metals can be removed and recycled as well. As space for landfills becomes premium, this not only helps reduce the need for landfills, but also reduces the economic impact of the project.
Abstract: The building industry has not only become a major consumer of materials; it ha salso become a source of polluttion.. Environmental integrated production and reusing and recycling is of great importance for the competitev position in EU Member States. EU Member States shall ensure that the technical, environmental and
Recycling of waste concrete is done to reuse the concrete rubble as aggregates in concrete. The recycled concrete aggregates have less crushing strength. The recycled concrete aggregates have less crushing strength, impact resistance, specific gravity and has more absorption value as compared to fresh aggregates.
Abstract - The paradigm of providing eco-friendly concrete is gaining impetus in the global construction industry. The dwindling resources have made the researchers to focus on sustainable development in all areas and more particularly in concrete production, due to the high rate of growth of industries and their
recycling and other material recovery, including backfilling operations using non-hazardous CDW to substitute other materials [2]. On the other hand, concrete industry is the largest consumer of natural resources and one of the largest waste producers. Even though, compared to other building materials, concrete is
making landscaping blocks or recycling into new concrete can contribute. The following is proposed of LEED v4 MR submittals for concrete. Other structural materials such as structural steel, reinforcing bars, masonry, precast concrete, wood, etc. could follow a similar concept.
