Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) on the drying shrinkage of the recycled concrete (RC). The natural aggregate (NA) was replaced by recycled aggregate at three replacement ratios (0%, 50%, and 100%). Then, the recycled concrete (RC) with different SAP contents was prepared. The performance of recycled concrete with different SAP content was analyzed with slump test, compressive strength test, and drying shrinkage test. GM (1, N ) grey prediction model was utilized to predict the drying shrinkage of recycled concrete containing SAP. The results show that the strength and durability of concrete are decreased by the addition of recycled aggregate. With the increase of the dosage of SAP, the strength and durability also raise. The prediction GM (1, N ) model for the drying shrinkage of recycled concrete with SAP is in good agreement with the actual drying shrinkage.
