Abstract

The use of recycled aggregates in concrete opens a whole new range of possibilities in reuse of materials in building industry. recycled aggregates are the materials for the future. aggregate is one of the main ingredients in producing concrete. hence need for an alternative coarse aggregate arises. many countries are giving infrastructural laws relaxation for increasing the use of recycled aggregate. the experimental analysis comprise with plain recycled aggregate concrete and recycled aggregate concrete with additive to steel fibre for increase in characteristic strength of concrete by 100% replacement of natural aggregates by recycled aggregates. water/cement ratio kept constant throughout. study on various properties of recycled aggregate and strength parameters of hardened concrete compressive strength is observed.
