Abstract:Paper presents experimental and Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis of fracture behavior of concrete made using Recycled Aggregate (RA). Concrete mixes were prepared using Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) as replacement of natural coarse aggregates. To study fracture performance, concrete mixes were prepared with water to cementitious content (w/b) ratios between 0.4 and 0.5. Beam specimens of size 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm were cast and tested as per method of Three-point bend test on notched beam prop… Show more
