Research on Characteristics of Recycled Concrete

Abstract

The recycled concrete technology has attracted increasing attention since it is one of the major measures to develop an ecological concrete, to achieve the sustainable development of building, resources, and environment. Durability performance of recycled concrete is such an important research direction in the field of recycled concrete that it has long been explored by many researchers. This paper is mainly devoted to the durability of recycled concrete, mainly carbonation resistance and freezing resistance. The advances of recycled concrete’s durability, not only at home but also abroad, were reviewed and analyzed by the author.
