Abstract
This study investigates the performance of concrete incorporating various recycled fine aggregates, including recycled brick aggregates, Fly Ash (FA), and Sugar Cane Bagasse Ash (SCBA). The test results showed that the mechanical properties were adversely affected when utilizing recycled brick or concrete aggregates, whereas FA or SCBA enhanced them. The water absorption potential of recycled bricks was proportional to the reduction in mechanical properties. FA and SCBA enhanced compressive strength and increased flexural strength up to 175.72% and 225.51%, respectively, at 20% replacement. The inclusion of recycled brick and concrete aggregates raised water absorption, while FA and SCBA significantly lowered it, improving the overall performance.
