Original Abstract

The circular economy is currently a highly discussed topic in many areas of production, due to the potential scarcity of natural resources. In the construction sector, it is often associated in the first place with the high shortages of natural aggregates for the production of concrete. To produce concretes up to strength classes C 30/37, the partial or complete replacement of natural aggregates by concrete or brick crushed recyclates in the 4/22 mm fraction can be used very efficiently and safely. This paper will show the current legislative limitations for the use of recyclates as aggregates for concrete production, the possibilities of their use when limiting the degrees of environmental influence or physico-mechanical parameters.
