Experimental Study on the Splitting Tensile Strength of Recycled Sintered Brick-Tile Concrete

Abstract

In this paper, the splitting tensile strength experiments of recycled sintered brick-tile concrete with different water-cement ratio, sand rate and water quantity were carried out, and the change law of splitting tensile strength with above three factors was acquired and failure patterns of the samples were analyzed. The results showed that the effects of sand rate and water quantity were not clear, while water-cement ratio was relatively significant and the splitting tensile strength was inversely proportional relationship with it. And the relation between the splitting tensile strength and the cubic compressive strength was summarized from the results.

Experimental Study on the Splitting Tensile Strength of Recycled Concrete Made of Brick and Tile

“…1 (b). We can find that the destruction of recycled brick aggregate not only registers as the damage in the interface between cement and recycled, and also reflectes in fracture of more recycled brick aggregate itself, which are different from the damage of ordinary concrete [6].…”
