Abstract

The conventional disposal of construction and demolition (C&D) waste increases the burden of landfills. Recycling and reusing can be an environmentally friendly and economically affordable means for the management of C&D waste. This paper investigated the performance of aggregate with different mixture percentages of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and natural aggregate (NA) with diverse fine contents as road base materials. The compaction behaviour, California bearing ratio (CBR), and resilient modulus were determined. The results indicated that the mixture containing 50% RCA had the highest CBR values and resilient modulus. This suggested CBR and resilient properties of NA can be improved by the incorporation of RCA.
