- Abstract
To investigate the impact of basalt fiber on the workability of recycled aggregate concrete, various lengths of basalt fibers were incorporated at 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3% volume content. This was done with a 100% replacement of recycled coarse aggregate to produce basalt fiber recycled aggregate concrete. Through workability assessment of the recycled concrete mixture, the effect of different lengths and quantities of basalt fibers on the operational effectiveness of recycled concrete was analyzed. Findings indicated that the inclusion of basalt fibers resulted in a reduction in the slump. Specifically, the slump of recycled aggregate concrete containing a single fiber decreased as both the length and content of the fiber increased, consequently reducing its workability. Conversely, the slump of 100% recycled aggregate concrete with mixed fibers demonstrated a pattern of initially increasing and then decreasing with the rise in fiber content.
