ABSTRACT

Currently, researchers in the field of construction waste recycling predominantly focus on recycled aggregate reinforcement technology while neglecting the critical factor: mix proportion design. This study employs the CiteSpace visualization analysis tool to systematically investigate the influence mechanism of brick aggregate and old mortar mixing ratios in recycled concrete (RCC) on their mechanical properties. The findings reveal three distinct phases in how brick and old mortar content ratios impact the mechanical performance of RCC. The research adopts experimental and micro structural analysis as primary methodologies to explore alternative approaches, underlying mechanisms, and performance evaluations of different mix ratio. Key research hotspots and frontiers identified include "construction waste", "fundamental properties", "mechanical performance", "bond strength", "constitutive relationships" and "pavement performance". Future advancements in RCC are anticipated to prioritize high-performance, eco-friendly properties, and microstructural mechanisms, thereby driving applications in engineering practices and standardizations within the construction industry.
