3. Background ・ A lot of demolition concrete are daily generated by demolition works of old concrete buildings. ・ More than 90% of demolition concrete is currently used for lower grade application including sub base or sub layer. ・ It is foreseen that the demand for these lower grade application cannot absorb increasing volume of demolition concrete to keep on increasing. The production of high quality recycled aggregate for the use of concrete for construction is highly required. ３

4. 1.Investigation on quality of traditional recycled aggregate(=>non processed recycled aggregate.) 1) Traditional recycled aggregate: Demolition concrete is crushed by crusher and foreign objects include metal and wood etc. are eliminated by magnetic and/or air separator. It was traditionally and is currently used as coarse aggregate with size range of 40- 0mm or 30-0mm. 2) Its quality The property of traditional aggregate has a lot of unknown factors and its quality widely varies. （ Field investigation of its quality) a) Sample collection: The coarse and fine samples were collected at a demolition concrete processing plant every two weeks for 1 year. b) The points to be investigated: I)Density, II)Water absorption, III)40tf crushing value （ BS 812 ） and IV)cement paste content. ４

8. Property of non processed recycled fine aggregate Density(oven dry) Water absorption ・ Non processed recycled fine aggregate 1.80-2.08g/cm 3 9-17.5% At the time of crushing of demolition concrete, its fragile part with low density and porous property generates a lot of micro fine.

9. Quality of non processed recycled aggregate. =Summary= 1) Non processed recycled coarse aggregate: a) Cement paste : 25-54% b) Density(oven dry) : 2.18-2.34g/cm 3 c) Water absorption : 5-8% d) 40t/f crushing value:20-28% = This quality is inferior to that of natural material crushed aggregate= 2) Non processed recycled fine aggregate: a) Density(oven dry) : 1.80-2.08g/cm 3 c) Water absorption : 9-17.5% = This quality is inferior to the above 1) and widely varies. 3) Conclusion: =The more cement paste, the less density.= The less density is caused by cement paste. Quality improvement can be attained by removing cement paste. ９

10. 2.Quality of recycled aggregate after quality improvement process(processed recycled aggregate). 1) Quality improvement process(How to remove cement paste): a) The material passes through Vertical Shaft Impactor (Barmac Hustler) up to 5 times(max.). This VSI has easy operation, high performance and low energy consumption. b) Micro fine with less than 1.75g/cm 3 of density which is produced after 5 passes and composes 10% of 5-0mm is eliminated by specially designed air separator. * The advantage of VSI “Rock on rock” crushing system is a feature and it is good at shaping the material. As “Rock on rock” crushes the fragile part of material, it helps to remove cement paste very much for improving quality. 2) Property of a random sample: a) Size : 30-13mm b) Density(oven dry) : 2.25g/cm 3 c) Water absorption : 6.45% １０１０
