Until now, there are no guidelines available in Germany regulating the use of recycled demolition material as aggregate in concrete according to German Code DIN 1045 (Concrete and Reinforced Concrete; Design and Execution). At the moment, building supervisory authorities and the German Institute of Technology (DIBt), have to give permission for the use of concrete made with recycled demolition material in the constructions. To change this status, the German Ministry of Research promotes a research program called “Recycling of Mineral Building Materials” (Baustoffkreislauf im Massivbau, BiM), which shall create a code additional to the German Code DIN 1045 to regulate the use of recycled concrete as aggregate. Concrete made with this aggregate is found to be uniform to concrete made with natural dense aggregate.
