Comparative study of three types of fine recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste (CDW), and their use in masonry mortar fabrication

摘要

This research aims to study feasibility of incorporation of fine fraction of recycled aggregates coming from construction and demolition waste in cement-based masonry mortar fabrication. Initially, three types of recycled aggregates: concrete, mixed and ceramic recycled aggregates, were characterized in terms of physical, mechanical and chemical properties. There were used 1:3 and 1:4 cement-to-aggregate proportions and replacement percentages of 50%, 75% and 100% respectfully for three types of studied recycled aggregates.
