Resumen
[EN] Construction and demolition waste (CDW) constitutes an increasingly significant
problem in society due to the volume generated, rendering sustainable management and
disposal problematic. The aim of this study is to identify a possible reuse option in the
concrete manufacturing for recycled aggregates with a significant ceramic content: mixed
recycled aggregates (MixRA) and ceramic recycled aggregates (CerRA). In order to do so,
several tests are conducted in accordance with the Spanish Code on Structural Concrete
(EHE-08) to determine the composition in weight and physic-mechanical characteristics
(particle size distributions, fine content, sand equivalent, density, water absorption,
flakiness index, and resistance to fragmentation) of the samples for the partial inclusion of
the recycled aggregates in concrete mixes. The results of these tests clearly support the
hypothesis that this type of material may be suitable for such partial replacements if simple
pretreatment is carried out. Furthermore, this measure of reuse is in line with European,
national, and regional policies on sustainable development, and presents a solution to the
environmental problem caused by the generation of CDW.
