Construction and demolition activities consume large amounts of natural resources, generating 4.5 bi tons of solid waste/year, called construction and demolition waste (C&DW) and other wastes, such as ceramic, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), glass, and slag. Furthermore, around 32 bi tons of natural aggregate (NA) are extracted …
To assess the applicability of recycled aggregates on a structural scale, many authors have investigated the structural performance of reinforced concrete beams with different percentages of recycled coarse concrete aggregate instead of …
Natural Aggregates. Natural aggregates are sourced from naturally occurring materials such as rocks, gravel beds, and riverbeds. These aggregates are formed through geological processes over thousands of years. The most common types of natural aggregates include gravel, sand, crushed stone, and rock fill.
Reviewed the features of 13 alternative coarse aggregates as a replacement for natural coarse aggregate. • Alternative coarse aggregates from different by-products and waste materials are reported.
A comparative analysis of the experimental results of the properties of fresh and hardened concrete with different replacement ratios of natural with recycled coarse aggregate is presented in the paper. Recycled aggregate was made by crushing the waste concrete of laboratory test cubes and precast concrete columns. Three types of concrete …
Recycling construction wastes as aggregates to replace natural sources to produce concrete has attracted the attention of many researchers and is nece…
Aggregates are also used in the water filtration and purification process, as well as air filtration and purification. What makes an aggregate a good aggregate? Aggregates must have predictable ...
The process of grinding consists of many factors, for example, the size and form of crushed. Crushing is one of the most energy-consuming technological processes. The purpose of grinding is to achieve the desired grain size of mineral raw materials. ... Influence of Natural Aggregate Crushing Process on Crushing Strength Index ...
Waste reduction and decreasing the need for natural aggregate are significant environmental factors that should be taken into consideration. Both can be achieved by incorporating recycled concrete aggregate into fresh concrete mixes. Most previous studies on concrete incorporating recycled concrete aggregates mainly …
Jitender and Sandeep ( 2014) [5] compared the properties of recycled aggregate and natural aggregates, stated that replacement of NA by RCA will effect on chloride ions resistance and ...
Aggregate sampling and testing are performed for various reasons, including preliminary investigation of supply sources, production quality control at the supply source, quality control at the construction or industrial process site, and acceptance or rejection (quality assurance) of materials by customers or project owners.
Natural aggregates are processed by crushing, screening, and washing to render them useful for engineering purposes. They exclude synthetic or artificial aggregates or marginal aggregates which are covered in Chapter 7.
This paper describes a new patented method involving a mechanical comminution stage and a high-intensity magnetic separation process to obtain the cementitious fraction in concrete and retrieve cleaner fine aggregate.
Aggregate processing commonly consists of transporting the materials to a plant, crushing, screening, washing, stockpiling and loading. The first step is to move the …
Materials play a fundamental role in any branch of civil engineering. From ancient times to the present day, society has required enormous amounts of construction materials, which implies an excessive exploitation of the natural environment. The present research work consisted in the design and development of asphalt mixes with a partial …
Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is a new type of concrete produced using crushed, screened, and washed recycled aggregate obtained from waste concrete to replace natural aggregate (NA) partially or completely [1].
The processing steps of natural coarse aggregate from naturally available rocks are explained. The source and processing procedure and number of steps …
EN 12620 6 defines manufactured aggregate as aggregate of mineral origin resulting from an industrial process involving thermal or other modification. This is used to cover materials that have been deliberately manufactured by processes involving more than just mechanical processing of natural rock, sand or gravel, and aggregates that are by ...
Resource utilization of construction and demolition (C&D) waste has great potential to significantly reduce the consumption of natural resources and improve the environment. Meanwhile, establishing a sound policy system and reducing production are the key ways to solve the problem of C&D waste. Numerous studies on C&D waste, …
of knowledge concerning aggregate abrasion based on the main Los Angeles index, whose verification is contained only in a few studies. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of the crushing of natural aggregate on the LA crumbling strength index. Two types of aggregates were analyzed—natural gravel and natural …
Alluvial deposits (rivers, lakes and ponds) are common natural aggregate sources (sand and gravel). However, the most production of natural aggregates worldwide is from hard rock sources found in quarries and underground mines. The manufacturing process of the aggregates in a quarry generally comprises the following phases:
Municipal waste utilization as a substitute for natural aggregate in the light of the circular economy. Author links open overlay panel Anna Gronba-Chyła a, ...

Given the pollution of waste concrete powder, low utilization rate, sand and stone resources shortage, and poor performance of artificial aggregate, the high-performance artificial aggregate was prepared by high …
Unfortunately, aggregate resources necessary to meet societal needs cannot be developed without causing environmental impacts. Most environmental impacts associated with aggregate mining are benign. Extracting aggregate seldom produces acidic mine drainage or other toxic affects commonly associated with mining of metallic or energy resources.
