Recycled Concrete Aggregate Testing

Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is a type of aggregate that is made from recycled concrete. It is created by crushing concrete that has been demolished or removed from a construction site. RCA can be used in a variety of applications, including new concrete construction, road base, and landscaping.

There are several benefits to using RCA. It is a sustainable material that helps to reduce waste. It is also cost-effective, as it can be produced at a fraction of the cost of virgin aggregate. Additionally, RCA can improve the performance of concrete in some cases. For example, it can make concrete more durable and resistant to cracking.

There are a few things to keep in mind when using RCA. It is important to ensure that the RCA is clean and free of contaminants. Additionally, the RCA should be crushed to the appropriate size for the application.
