Abstract [en]
The properties of UHPC containing fine recycled concrete aggregates (FRCA) are investigated. FRCA in the particle range 0.125-2 mm in diameter were used. The water-binder ratio was kept constant for all mixes. Natural crushed aggregates (NCA) were replaced by 0%, 25%, 50%,75% and 100% FRCA. Autogenous shrinkage decreased by 16-45% with an increase in the amount of FRCA whereas drying shrinkage increased by 12-33%. Generally, there was strength increase of 4-17% for concrete containing FRCA after 1 day. However, after 28 days the difference is negligible. Hydration kinetics were not affected by the replacement of NCA by FRCA.
