Abstract
Nowadays, there are lot of concrete waste were produced from demolition, destruction and others. The usage of concrete is not environmentally friendly due to depletion of reserve natural resources, high energy consumption and disposal issues. Construction debris give a large fraction of solid waste disposal problem, and constitutes the large component. By recycling concrete waste for brick production as replacement the other materials, it can reduce the usage of natural resources and disposal problem that have been occur. The aim of this study to determine the sustainability of the recycled concrete by producing a brick using recycled coarse concrete aggregate at nominal size 10mm. An experiment done by comparing the result of the control specimen using 100% natural sand with specimen that have replaced the sand with recycled concrete aggregate for 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%. The result showed the optimum recycled concrete to produce a brick is at 90% replacement of RCCA where the compressive strength and flexural was achieved 9.7MPA and 3.53MPA respectively with 16133.33 kg/m3 of density. The water absorption of green brick is 9.23% and the cost of brick have been reduced from Rm0.26 to 0.20.
