The performances of RCA is mainly influenced by the adhered mortar of RCA: the higher the amount of adhered mortar, the higher the porosity and water absorption, implying lower durable mortars and concretes prepared with RCA than those prepared with normal aggregate [16, 17].

The total replacement of fine RCA to the normal aggregate produces a decrease in compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strengths of about 14, 6, and 23%, respectively.

The compressive strength reduction can be attributed, mainly, to the replacement of normal aggregate by a lower quality aggregate.
