Influence of Recycled Aggregate Quality on the Mechanical Properties of Concrete
The use of recycled construction and demolition waste - especially recycled concrete - as an aggregate for new concrete mixes, leads to saving of natural resources and helps to reduce the pressure on landfilling sites.

Steam curing effect on the properties of fly ash high performance recycled aggregates concrete [PDF]
The aim of this study is to encourage the use of Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) in High Performance Concrete (HPC) with fly ash. Three types of coarse RCA sourced from medium to high strength concretes were employed in 100% replacement.
