Abstract
Many environmental problems can be attributed to various sources, such as the demolition of old buildings, waste from bricks, glass waste, among others, which are generated worldwide. This waste is converted and recycled as natural aggregate. On the other hand, a significant issue with concrete incorporating Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) is its inferior properties compared to natural aggregate concrete. The subpar properties of RCA concrete can be enhanced by the addition of Fibers. This research examines the effects of polyethylene terephthalate fiber (RPETF) and recycled fine concrete aggregates (RFCA) on the mechanical properties and durability of self-compacting concrete (SCC). Three concrete families were created: one using RPETF alone, one using RFCA alone, and a third utilizing both RPETF and RFCA combined. The natural fine aggregates (NFA) were replaced with RFCA in increments of 25% from 0% to 100%. The results showed that the split tensile strengths of the mix of 100% RFCA and 1.2 % RPETF have improved over time by 28% compared to the mix with 100% RFCA alone. However, the inclusion of RPETF in SCC mixtures with varying amounts of RFCA resulted in reduced durability of the composite.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
