THE ASSESSMENT OF STRUCTURAL CONCRETE WITH RECYCLED AGGREGATES IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY
Abstract
Among its activities, the construction industry has a significant impact on the environment. In recent years, therefore, emphasis has been placed on the sustainability of building structures and materials, and ways and means are being sought to achieve this. Specifically, it is about reducing emissions and using the waste produced by recycling materials, e.g. aggregate. The motivation for using recycled aggregates is also to reduce dependence on natural resources, which are declining. The article deals with the assessment of concrete with recycled aggregate using the sustainability indicator.
