Abstract
Abstract
The paper presents the results of construction waste treatment for possible replacement of natural aggregates in cement composites. The individual processes of construction waste treatment for the purpose of obtaining the required fractions 0/4 mm, 4/8 mm and 8/16 mm are described. It deals with the so-called recycled aggregate, which will subsequently be used in cement composites as a substitute for natural aggregate. The properties of individual fractions of recycled aggregate are presented, both in terms of composition, density, water absorption and granulometric, mineralogical and elemental composition.
