Description
The ability to recycle and reuse concrete and demolition waste is critical to reducing environmental impacts of these materials as well as meeting national, regional and global environmental standards. Comprehensive and authoritative in its coverage, Handbook of Recycled Concrete and Demolition Waste, Second Edition, follows closely the tradition of the First Edition as well as the other books in the Woodhead Publishing Series in Civil and Structural Engineering by providing the latest research in the field. This revised Handbook discusses environmental and safety issues such as the removal of gypsum, asbestos and alkali-silica reaction (ASR) concrete, as well as life-cycle analysis of concrete with recycled aggregates. New chapters concerning construction and demolition waste reuse and BIM for waste reduction are also included.
Written by an international group of contributors, this Handbook considers the latest techniques for managing construction and demolition waste, including waste management plans, ways of estimating levels of waste, the types and optimal location of waste recycling plants and the economics of managing construction and demolition waste. In this Handbook, the Editors discuss conventional demolition and construction techniques before offering expert advice regarding the preparation, refinement and quality control of concrete aggregates produced from waste. It also allows for the assessment of the mechanical properties, strength and durability of concrete made using recycled aggregates. Civil Engineers and Material Scientist and Researchers will find Handbook of Recycled Concrete and Demolition Waste, Second Edition, a valuable guide to the latest research in the use of recycled aggregates such as pavements, high-performance concrete and alkali-activated or geopolymer cements.
