This research paper aims at investigating the effects of fly ash as cement replacement in green concrete made with partial replacement of conventional coarse aggregates with coarse aggregates from demolishing waste. Green concrete developed with waste materials is an active area of research as it helps in reducing the waste management issues and protecting the environment. Six concrete mixes were prepared using 1:2:4 ratio and demolishing waste was used in equal proportion with conventional aggregates, whereas fly ash was used from 0%-10% with an increment of 2.5%. The water-cement ratio used was equal to 0.5. Out of these mixes, one mix was prepared with all conventional aggregates and was used as the control, and one mix with 0% fly ash had only conventional and recycled aggregates. The slump test of all mixes was determined. A total of 18 cylinders of standard size were prepared and cured for 28 days. After curing the compressive strength of the specimens was evaluated under gradually increasing load until failure. It is observed that 5% replacement of cement with fly ash and 50% recycled aggregates gives better results. With this level of dosage of two waste materials, the reduction in compressive strength is about 11%.

Construction is the one the fast growing field in the worldwide. There are many environmental issues connected with the manufacture of OPC, at the same time availability of natural coarse aggregate is getting reduced. Geopolymer binder and recycled aggregates are promising alternatives for OPC and natural coarse aggregates. It is produced by the chemical action of inorganic molecules and made up of Fly Ash, GGBS, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and an alkaline solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate. 10 M sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate alkali activators are used to synthesis the geopolymer in this study. Recycled aggregates are obtained from the construction demolished waste. The main focus of this work is to find out the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete of grade G40 when natural coarse aggregate(NCA) is replaced by recycled coarse aggregate in various proportions such as 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%,40% and 50% and also to compare the results of geopolymer concrete made with recycled coarse aggregates(RAGPC) with geopolymer concrete of natural coarse aggregate(GPC) and controlled concrete manufactured with recycled aggregates(RAC) and controlled concrete of natural coarse aggregates(CC) of respective grade. It has been observed that the mechanical properties are enhanced in geopolymer concrete, both in natural coarse aggregate and recycled coarse aggregate up to 30% replacement when it is compared with the same grade of controlled concrete.

Now a days increase in population increases the demand of concrete for construction purpose and Aggregates are the important constituents in concrete.Re-use of demoliation waste avoids the problem of waste disposal and is also helpful in reducing the gap between demand and supply of fresh aggregates. This research deals with partial replacement of natural coarse aggregates (NCA) with recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) of age group 30 years and 35 years in different proportions like 20%, 30%, 40% . For this, M20 grade of concrete is adopted. Curing of specimens were done for 7days and 28 days to attain the maximum strengths. Partial replacement of fine aggregate with Granite powder at 5%, 10%, 15% were done to reduce the waste percentage as well to gain more strength. After casting the specimens of RCA with Granite powder replacement, curing was done and the specimens were tested for compressive and tensile strengths. Obtained results of compressive and tensile strengths of RCA concrete mix were compared with conventional concrete. In this direction, an experimental investigation of compressive and tensile strength was undertaken to use RCA as a partial replacement in concrete. It was observed that the concrete with recycled aggregates of 30years and 35years age group achieved maximum compressive strength of 29.03 N/mm2 , 28.96 N/mm2 and tensile strength of 11.91 N/mm2 , 10.34 N/mm2 were obtained at 40%replacement of RCA respectively. It is found that the compressive strength and Split tensile strength of RAC with copper slag was increased 8.20% and 2.90% when compared with the RAC.

In this world of rapid urbanization the demand for natural construction materials is increasing day by day which has created a necessity for alternative construction materials. Recycling of materials is a possible way of eradicating the acute shortage of materials. Considerable work has been done in the area of self-compacting concrete by partial replacement of coarse aggregates (CA) with recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) obtained from construction and demolition debris. The present study has been done by adding steel fibers to concrete in a view of improving the mechanical properties of SCC so that it can be applied in beam column joints. An ideal mix proportion was arrived at, as a result of repeated trials and specimens that were cast and cured. The compression, tensile, and flexural strength parameters were determined and the result has been presented. The results obtained reveal that brick bats in combination with steel fibres may be used extensively in SCC.

In the present era of infrastructure development, demolishing waste management poses serious problems, particularly in urban centers. Vast development requires huge amounts of conventional concrete aggregates resulting in serious environmental problems. Therefore, efforts are carried out in utilizing demolishing waste, particularly demolishing concrete as coarse aggregates used in new concrete. This article presents laboratory investigations of flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams made with partial replacement of natural coarse aggregates with coarse aggregates from demolished concrete under 12-month long-term loading. Two batches of beams were cast and cured for 28 days. In the first batch three RC beams with partial replacement of natural coarse aggregates were cast, while in the second batch 6 RC beams with all-natural coarse aggregates were prepared. Out of these six beams three beams were tested under short-term loading to determine maximum load. 50% of this load was used as sustained load on the remaining all beams. The beams were mounted on purpose made frames and deflection, strain, and cracking were recorded on daily basis. After the elapse of the defined time the beams were tested under central point load until failure. Result comparison shows a 4.96% increase in deflection and 2.33% reduction in peak load. Based on the results of this study it is concluded that demolished concrete as coarse aggregates in new concrete shows reasonably good performance under 12-month long-term loading.

The Relationship

Demolition waste increasing day by day. The old damaged building materials can be used in present buildings or other construction works. Especially the recycled aggregates are useful to the concrete structures. The experimental studies on the use of recycled coarse aggregate has been going on for many countries. This publication focuses on the relationship between the shear capacity and the flexural cracking load of reinforced recycled concrete beams with stirrups, this experimental Inspection with partial replacement of natural coarse aggregates (NAC) with recycled coarse aggregates (RAC) at different ages as 10, 20 and 30 years in various proportions as 20 per cent, 30 per cent, 40 per cent. For this, M30 grade of concrete is consider. Curing of specimens were done for 7 day and 28 days to conclude the maximum strengths. The obtained results of concrete with partial replacement of recycled aggregates of 10,20and 30 years age group conclude maximum compressive strength of 35.84 N/mm2 at 40% replacement of NCA with RCA of age group (10 years) and 34.12 N/mm2 at 30% replacement of NCA whit RCA of (20 years) age group and 36.14 N/mm2 20% replacement of NCA with RCA of age group (30 years). After the compressive strength, beam specimens were casted for 7day and 28 days. Based on test results of 8 beams, the relationship between the cracking load that causes a beam to crack in the middle of the shear span and the beam's shear capacity is confident. All beams are reinforced in the longitudinal direction only and only tested under two-point loading conditions. The average analytical cracking load ratio is 0.60.the mid-shear span at cracking load (Vcr-a/2) in comparison with the observed shear capacity (Vexp). The analytical cracking load ratio. The analytical cracking’s load was used in this exploration as it is more reliable than the observed cracking load. At mid-span, the shear capacity of most of the beams was shown to be 50%. The average shear capacity ratio to the related test crack load in the center of the shear span 0.43. The analysis showed that cracking loads are strongly related to the shear capacity of the members. This relationship can be used to develop recycled reinforced beam members ' shear design process.

This paper presents a study on the compressive strength of concrete using recycled aggregates. The concrete was designed to have a 25MPa compressive strength and an 8cm slump. The rates of replacing natural aggregates with recycled coarse were 0%, 10%, and 20%. The test samples were compressed to determine their compressive strength value after 7, 14, and 28 days of curing. The results showed that the concrete slump did not change effectively at a 10% replacement rate. When using 20% recycled aggregates, the concrete was too hard and the homogeneity of the concrete mixture could not be guaranteed. The compressive strength slightly decreased using 10% of recycled aggregates and decreased significantly using 20%. Therefore, 20% of recycled aggregate replacement is not suitable. The results showed that using recycled aggregates at a rate of 10% is optimal.
