The accelerated structural expansion in most countries has resulted in a major problem related to providing the necessary concrete for these buildings. Besides, the buildings that have become out of service recently has posed a real problem represented in demolishing them creating a large amount of hard-to-manage aggregate. The necessity to get rid of the aggregate have opened up the possibilities for attempting to use it as a relative substitute for the natural aggregate. The research focuses on recycling these aggregate in an attempt to use them in producing concrete and other construction materials. The research deals with one of the mechanisms of benefiting from these recycled aggregate through using them in producing concrete through treating the aggregate produced from demolition, and mixing them in quantities that reflect their actual ratio. The results are of great importance economically and environmentally.

The large increase in the volume of demolition concrete waste and its impact on the environment has led to reconsider of using concrete demolition rubble as a partial or a whole alternative of natural aggregates to produce new concrete which has th e required properties to use in engineering constructions[1]. With the possibility of improving the mechanical properties of this concrete by processing this aggregates before using it or support this concrete with fiber to improve its structural behavior. This research deals with the study of the replacement the natural aggregates used in concrete with recycled concrete aggregates resulting from the demolition rubble , according to different replacement ratiosranging between 0 % -25 % -50 % -75 % -100% and the impact on the concrete behavior with a natural aggregates and determine the optimal replacementpercentage. The results showed a relative decrease in the concrete resistance on the simple pressure , limited decrease in the volumetric mass also, and a slight adjustment to the behavior of concrete under the loading effect by increasing the replacement proportion of the natural aggregateswith recycled concrete aggregates..
This research deals with producing structural lightweight aggregates concrete (the density is less than 1920kg/m3 and compressive strength is more than 17.2Mpa according to ACI 213R-03) by using scoria aggregates. Several concrete mixes have been d esigned with different proportions of scoria aggregates. The cement content (c=450 kg/m3), the ratio (w/c = 0.36) were kept constant in all the mixes. Different tests were performed to determine some properties of product concrete such as density, compressive strength and splitting tensile strength. The density of product concrete was in the range of (1752-1917 kg/m3), compressive strength was in the range of (22.2-32.8Mpa), and the splitting strength was in the range of (2.3-3.2Mpa). The study demonstrated the possibility of production concrete achieved the Requirements of the American code ACI 213R-03 for structural lightweight concrete.
Concrete considers as the most popular building material because of the many advantages that it has. This come up with a huge amount of concrete waste. As a way to produce a concrete which is friend to environment, four percentages 0%, 50%, 75%, 100% of coarse recycled aggregate as replacement of natural coarse aggregate in concrete mix are used in this research. The work ability and wet and dry density are presented in this study. The compressive strength at age of 7, 28, 56 days are estimated, also splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity are founded at 28 day. The study shows that when The percentage of recycled aggregate exceeds 50% in concrete mix the mechanical properties reduce. When 100% of recycled aggregate is used the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and elastic modulus decrease by 14%, 22%, 25% respectively, so it is possible to use recycled aggregate concrete in production of non-structural elements.
foamed concrete is a concrete made by cement slurry mixed with foaming agent, so that foamed concrete is lighter than conventional concrete. The objectives of this study is to produce this kind of concrete, and to study some of its physical and mec hanical properties. Mix design of concrete was made for four required densities (1000, 1300,1600,1900 kg/m3), cement content of 350 kg/ m3, and water to cement ratio equal to 0.5. Different tests were performed to determine some properties of product concrete such as density, compressive strength and splitting tensile strength. The results demonstrated the possibility of production foamed concrete with wide range of density and strength. The oven dry density of foamed concrete was in the range of (870-1773 kg/m3) , compressive strength was in the range of (2.95-16.2 Mpa ), and the splitting strength was in the range of (0.32-1.76Mpa).
Manufacturing processes are the main source of waste materials, however the increasing awareness about the environment has tremendously contributed to the concerns related with disposal of the generated wastes. Solid waste management is one of the ma jor environmental concerns in the world. With the scarcity of space for land filling and due to its ever increasing cost, waste utilization has become an attractive alternative to disposal. Research is being carried out on the utilization of waste products in concrete. Such waste products include discarded tires, plastic, glass, and coal combustion by-product. This paper presents a detailed review about recycled plastics (polyethylene), as aggregates to cement mortar by replace equivalent weight of sand by plastic in regular specimen and watch its effect on the property of mortar include compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, absorption and heating effect. It is clear that compressive strength, splitting tensile strength decreased with increase in plastic content but this property increases by exposing samples to high temperatures.
