Накратко на български

Бетонът с рециклирани зърна от срутени сгради се изследва, за да се създадат подходящи смеси за строителство на инфраструктура. Това помага за намаляване на разходите и разхода на природни ресурси, като осигурява безопасността на новите конструкции.

Tailor-made Recycled Aggregate Concretes

This project is intended to overcome current barriers of using RCA in concrete for structural applications and to bridge the knowledge gap between scientists and engineers.The novelty of the proposed research exchange is to develop common approaches which can be used for a wide range of recycled aggregate concrete products. By developing collaborative multi- and inter-disciplinary research we can improve our knowledge, skills, and experiences more effectively and more efficiently. Not only can this reduce the cost of the research but can also speed it up and disseminate the research findings more quickly and more widely, thus to achieve a multi-win scenario. In many cities, particularly in many developing countries, old buildings are being demolished and new ones are being constructed. From an environmental and cost savings standpoint, it is logical to take waste from on site and reuse it in a new project. The proposed research is extremely timely and important to advance innovation in sustainable construction materials to be applied in infrastructure development, providing a robust scientific underpinning for the design of recycled aggregate concrete mix based on its applications, considering the current shortage of virgin aggregate in many countries. The research will also contribute to the development of the modelling tools required to resolve uncertainties in the parameters influencing the long-term performance of recycled aggregate concrete structures, enabling the safe and confident utilisation of RCA in infrastructure applications in the Europe and worldwide.

Цел на проекта

Concrete is the main construction material used on earth. The increasing population and urbanization has led to construction of new high-rise buildings and demolishing existing old low-rise ones. This has become not only the cause of natural resources depletion at an alarming rate but also gradually becoming a challenge for environmental preservation. Concrete industry consumes a majority of natural resources and produces a large amount of construction waste. In order to ensure sustainable, cost-effective but still profitable concrete production, extensive research is needed to investigate how concrete industry can produce green concrete by using less nature resources and producing less waste. The aim of the proposed research is to develop tailor-made concretes by using more recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) for structural applications. The use of RCA as granular material in pavement design has been a long history. However its use in structure concrete has not been widely accepted, primarily due to the poor quality found in RCA. To overcome this technical difficulty one has to understand the behaviour of RCA and to find a way in which the quality of the RCA can be improved and controlled during its mixing process. This requires a systematic research into various specific aspects of RCA and recycled aggregate concrete products. This proposed RISE programme is to bring together an international team of researchers with a wide variety of skills, to tackle the challenges faced by construction industry. The proposed research covers the fundamental study of cementitious materials as well as their applications in different construction fields. The outcome of the research will provide vital information on how to revolutionise the production of concrete materials and how to engineer concrete mixes using various different components to tailor-made the properties of the resulting concrete.
