Due to the continuous demand for concrete to meet various requirements, extensive and wide spread research work is being carried out in the area of concrete technology. Construction activities generate a significant amount of concrete waste, posing environmental and economic challenges. Usage of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) in concrete production offers a sustainable solution by reducing reliance on virgin resources and minimizing landfill waste. This project aims at assessing the strength characteristics of concrete incorporating 40% recycled aggregate while employing diverse curing techniques. The study has also been done to investigate the influence of different curing methods on the compressive and tensile strength of the concrete mix containing recycled aggregates. The study reveals that this kind of mixture with 40% recycled aggregate cured using water immersion method can successfully be used for construction of low-rise buildings and pavements. Thus, this project holds significance in sustainable construction practices.
