Study on Mechanical Performance of Recycled Aggregate Concrete with Modified Nano Silica in Cement

Abstract

Building materials playing an important role in the construction industry. The high cost of conventional building materials is a major factor affecting housing delivery in the world. Recycled aggregate is a waste from the demolition structures. This necessitated the research into alternative materials of construction. This aims to analyze the compressive strength, Split tensile strength and Flexural strength characteristics of concrete produced using cement replaced with Nano silica and coarse aggregate replaced with recycled aggregate.
