Comportamiento mecánico de concreto fabricado con agregados reciclados

Abstract

THE SOLID WASTES PRODUCED BY THE READY MIXED CONCRETE INDUSTRY REPRESENT A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEED AN IMMEDIATELY SOLUTION. THIS CONCRETE MIGHT BE USED TO FABRICATE RECYCLED CONCRETE AGGREGATE (RCA). IN THIS PAPER THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE FABRICATED WITH RCA AND DIFFERENT CEMENT CONTENTS ARE PRESENTED. THE RCA WERE FABRICATED USING OLD LABORATORY SPECIMENS MADE OF READY MIXED CONCRETE. THE RESULTS SHOWED THE PROPERTIES OF THE RECYCLED CONCRETE ARE SIMILAR TO THAT OF NATURAL CONCRETE. ACCORDINGLY, THE RECYCLED CONCRETE CAN LIKELY BE USED AS TYPE TWO CONCRETE INAGREEMENT WITH MEX ICO CITY BUILDING CODE (RCDF).
