Experimental research on compressive strength of self-compacting concrete with recycled coarse aggregates

In order to study cubic compressive strength of recycled coarse aggregates-filled concrete systematically, recycled coarse aggregates with the particle size from 50 to150mm are made from waste solid contents, which are artificially broken from abandoned rubble and concrete blocks. Based on the mix proportion design method of ordinary concrete and test code for hydraulic concrete, 3 groups of recycled coarse aggregates-filled concrete cubic specimens were prepared and the compressive strength of the specimens were tested. The results showed that basic failure pattern of recycled coarse aggregates-filled concrete are longitudinal splitting failure, and that cubic compressive strength is higher than that of self-compacting concrete.
