- Synopsis
- The circulating flow for natural resources is recognized to be important topic at present. As for the concrete production in Japan, the technology using high quality recycled aggregate for structural concrete starts to be in use and it is just controlled in market now. This report is on the ground that the re-collect design and the human environmental design applied in other industries, and fundamental properties of some kinds recyclable concrete considering the material design for structural concrete was investigated. In particular, it shows that the experimental investigations of mix proportion of the recyclable concretes for supplying cement and aggregate materials and the properties of model building which was applied completely recyclable concrete for the first time in Japan practically.
