dc.description.abstractThis paper presents the mechanical performance results obtained to evaluate the effect of incorporating coarse recycled aggregates from various recycling cycles. These aggregates were obtained from crushing elements of concrete of controlled origin, which were mixed to have the same performance in each cycle. The specific purpose was to study the mechanical performance of concrete designed with incorporation of coarse recycled aggregates from three successive recycling cycles at two replacement ratios, 25% and 100%, comparing it with that of a reference concrete, a mix with the same composition but where all aggregates are natural. An experimental campaign was carried out: to obtain all the necessary coarse recycled aggregates; to produce the concrete mixes that were the source of the recycled coarse aggregates; to produce the concrete mixes that were studied and; to perform all the necessary tests to evaluate the mechanical properties of these concrete mixes. Compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, tensile strength and abrasion resistance were tested. The results prove that, with the increase of the number of recycling cycles of the coarse aggregates, there is a decrease of its quality that affects the mechanical performance of concrete. That mechanical performance decreases asymptotically with the number of recycling cycles, tending towards a final value representative of the property’s stabilization, and linearly with the increase in the ratio of incorporation of recycled coarse aggregates. It is concluded that, by knowing the final value, concrete with incorporation of coarse recycled aggregates from any recycling cycle can be designed for the most diverse applications with a good safety level.pt_PT
