The influences of different renewable aggregate ratios on the basic RC replacement mechanical properties, uniaxial compression stress and strain curve, and the elastic modulus and rebound value were investigated.The results show that RC mechanical properties decreases with renewable aggregate replacement rate increasing. The prolongation can reduce the reduced span.展开更多
