| Abstract: | The present work addresses the effect of incorporation of colloidal Nano-Silica on the behavior of concrete containing 100% recycled coarse aggregate. In this study, concrete mixes containing both natural and recycled aggregate are produced by replacing a fraction of Portland cement 0.75%, 1.5% and 3% of colloidal Nano-Silica respectively. The results of experimental investigation depicts that compressive strength, tensile strength and Non-Destructive parameters are enhanced due to addition of NS. Moreover, the study reveals that the characteristics of recycled aggregate concrete resembles with that of natural aggregate concrete with the addition of little amount (3%) of Nano-Silica. |
