...Z. Wang; L. Li; S. Duan; X. He; H. Li; Y. Zhang This paper investigates the bearing characteristics of a recycled concrete aggregate encased column (RCAEC) composite ground with the objective of better-utilizing construction waste. A large-scale model test was conducted, in which recycled concrete...

Likos Mechanical and hydraulic properties of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) were evaluated for use as backfill in mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls. Large-scale drained triaxial tests, direct...

...A. Abbaspour; B. F. Tanyu; A. H. Aydilek; A. Y. Dayioglu Long-term filtration tests were conducted to assess the hydraulic compatibility of the recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and nonwoven geotextile that is typically used in underdrains. The RCA samples used in this study were collected from...

...M. Li; H. He; K. Senetakis The behavior of a uniform recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) reinforced with carbon fibers is examined in the study. Six specimens with percentages of fiber from 0% to 2% were prepared in a triaxial apparatus and tested using bender elements. These specimens followed...
