Abstract

The demand of infrastructure has increased strikingly due to increasing populace and improved standard of living. Construction sector has witnessed record  development due to change in its policies and India being a developing country is seeing ascent in the construction activities. The change is an unavoidable part for rapid urbanization and demolition and reconstruction are the basic necessities for redevelopment. Construction and Demolition (C&D) squanders become a crucial ecological difficulty because C&D squanders are non-biodegradable. In this paper an analytical study is engulfed which incorporates Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) obtained from C&D squanders as a halfway replacement of fine aggregate in Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) utilizing Two Stage Mixing Approach Method (TSMA) to acquire a concrete with durability properties better than Normal Mixing Approach (NMA).
