· It was found that the high water absorption of RFA reduces the workability of the prepared fresh concrete. In coarse aggregate concrete, an increase in the water-to-ash ratio (W/C) or the addition of additives or mineral additives is required to offset the lower workability of the RAC [ 23 ].
· The workability of recycled aggregate concrete not only depends on the absorption capacity of recycled aggregate but also on the shape and texture of recycled aggregates (Rashwan and Abourizk 1997). As the recycled aggregates are more angular due to the crushing and thereby higher surface-to-volume ratio, internal friction was …
· Workability of Recycled Aggregate Concrete RAC has higher water absorption capacity because the contaminants become the primary absorber. This increased absorption capacity and porosity result in low specific gravity and low bulk density. So high water content is required to achieve the same workability as NAC.
