CENTRAL IDEA: The three major step in recycled concrete are recycling
aggregates, mixing protocol, and verified the performance concrete.
MAJOR POINTS:
II. The second step in recycling concrete is performing the mixing protocol
materials
Instruments
Type of protocoling
III. The third step in recycling concrete is getting a concrete with high
performance
Worakbility
Resistance
Durabilidad
SPEECH OUTLINE
INTRODUCTION:
Attention getter. - Did you know that concrete is the most used material
in the world? Have you ever heard that recycled concrete can be made
from recycled aggregates?
Reveal the topic: recycled concrete. - According to the World Energy
Council, “sustainable growth is not an option it is a necessity”. The
production system of building industry has had the characteristics of high
investment, high pollution and less efficiency all along, and this has been its
development strategy.
Relate the topic to the audience: The recycled concrete depends mainly of
waste concrete that it is reused in order to produce a new concrete that is
called recycled concrete.
Preview or Central idea. – Provide the three main steps for the process of
manufacturing about recycled concrete
BODY
II. The second step is to try to mix all materials in a mixer, before starting
the rotation of the mixer, add the coarse aggregate and some water after
that turn on the mixer and while the mixer is rotating add the fine
aggregate, the cement and the rest of the water then all the components
are in the mixer, with the stopwatch count 3 minutes of mixing, continuing
with a rest period of 3 minutes (Cover the open end of the mixer to
prevent evaporation during the period of rest) and continue with a mixing
time end of 2 minutes.
III. In this step to finish the process, the recycle concrete must have a good
performance by different types of testing , the recycled concrete mix
must be tested to ensure its quality, when it is in a fresh state, the
workability is measure by cone test Abrams and when it is in a hardened
state you can estimate the resistance of the recycled concrete by the axial
compression test and all the results must be successful and must be
validated by ASTM and ACI and must comply with many parameters
because according to these standards, the recycled concrete is going to
have a good durability in the constructions that are going to be made.
