Experimental Study on Effect of Recycled Asphalt Mixture Particles on Properties of Concrete

Abstract

To study the effect of different dosage of recycled asphalt mixture particles on the performance of concrete, the mechanical characteristics, shrinkage performance and durability testing were performed, the results show that the compressive strength and flexural strength of concrete are decreased with the increase of dosage recycled asphalt mixture particles, while still meet the regulatory requirements; the capability of plastic shrinkage resistance can be improved by incorporated recycled asphalt mixture fine particles, yet slight effective on the temperature shrinkage; the durability of concrete changes as a result of incorporation of recycled asphalt mixture fine particles, the durability of concrete with a dosage of 20% is considered in the optimal state, so the recommended dosage is 20%.
