Design guidance, recommendations and specifications of mix design of recycled aggregate concretes with specific applications.

Workshop on fire behaviour of recycled aggregate concretes

An external workshop to disseminate research findings in WP5 to public Presentations will be delivered on topics of the thermal and mechanical properties of concretes with RCA at elevated temperatures failure criteria of recycled aggregate concretes and FE modelling of fire resistance of recycled aggregate concrete structures

Workshop on design guidelines of recycled aggregate concretes

An external workshop to disseminate the proposed design guidelines, specifications and recommendations of recycled aggregate concretes for different applications. The workshop will cover the applications of the design guidelines, and worked examples.
