Abstract
Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) has been widely adopted in construction and emerged as a sustainable alternative to conventional natural aggregates in the construction industry. However, the study of holistic perspectives in recent literature is lacking. This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of RCA, highlighting its properties, applications, and overall sustainability benefits to facilitate the comprehensive points of view of technology, ecology, and economics. This paper explores the manufacturing process of RCA, examines its mechanical and durability characteristics, and investigates its environmental impacts. Furthermore, it delves into the various applications of RCA, such as road…
