Effect of Crushed Concrete on Some Properties of Modified Reactive Powder Concrete Reinforced With Micro Steel Fibers by Rusul Hussain Saeed, Nada Mahdi Fawzi

“…The crushed concrete was taken from examined cube spacemen of a road project in the city of Baghdad and then crushed until they were no bigger than 10 mm. Micro steel fibres (1% by volume of the concrete) and crushed concrete (25% and 100%) of the original reactive powder concrete were added to the mix instead of fine sand and micro steel fibres before the casting. …”
