Abstract
This research aims to evaluate the potential using of recycled asphalt pavement aggregate (RAP), recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and silica fume (SF) in production of roller compacted concrete (RCC). Thirty RCC mixes were casted in which natural aggregates (NA) were totally replaced by RAP and RCA with (90% and 10%), (80% and 20%), (70% and 30%), (60% and 40%), (50% and 50%), (40% and 60%), (30% and 70%), (20% and 80%) and (10% and 90%), respectively, and cement was partially replaced by SF in 2% (2.5% and 5%). The tested mechanical and physical properties of RCC mixes were the compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, the modulus of elasticity, the modulus of rupture, and the density. The durability feature was monitored through the water absorptions of the RCC. Test results showed that partial replacement of cement with 2.5% and 5% SF has improved the mechanical properties of conventional RCC mixes, as well as, decreasing the dry density of RCC mixes and the water absorptio
