Popis: With the rapid development of urbanization, the construction industry consumes a lot of cement and produces a large amount of construction waste. To overcome this situation, the rational use of recycled aggregate produced from waste concrete is one of solutions. In some countries, the building industry has approved the use of recycled coarse aggregates in concrete, with some limits. However, practically all existing standards and regulations prohibit the use of recycled fine aggregate (RFA) in concrete. Therefore, study on improving the performance of RFA concrete is vital. In this study, the effects of fly ash and GGBS on concrete with RFA were investigated. Compressive strength, pore structure, drying shrinkage and accelerated carbonation were tested. The correlation between the pore structure and properties of concrete was analyzed. The results show that adding fly ash and GGBS to RFA concrete increased its compressive strength, modified pore structure, reduced drying shrinkage, and even achieved higher compressive strength and lower drying shrinkage than normal concrete. The compressive strength was mainly affected by the capillary pores, and the carbonation was mainly affected by the gel pores.
