Abstract
Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) is emerging as an important alternative to traditional concrete due to its ability to reprocess construction and demolition waste (C & D). Although extensive research study has examined the mechanical characteristics and durable properties of RAC, in addition its fresh properties are equal important as it plays an important role which ensure uniform consistency, workability and compaction. This review paper studies a comprehensive examination of the RAC in fresh state performance highlighting significant factors as setting time, workability slump, density, bleeding tendency and rheological performance. It critically evaluates the properties of recycled coarse aggregate considering impact of water cement ratio and incorporation of chemical admixtures on fresh properties using insights from international studies. This review highlights a comprehensive influencing keys factors as flowability and stability on behaviour of RAC in its plastic stage. It evaluates current improvement techniques and prospective research avenues aimed at enhancing its characteristics in fresh state performance and promotes sustainable construction applications.
Keywords: Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC); Recycled Coarse Aggregates (RCA); Workability; Slump; Density; Rheology; Fresh properties.
