The utilization of Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) in construction presents a promising avenue towards sustainable waste management and cost-effective material sourcing. This study explores the feasibility of incorporating low strength black steel fibres in recycled aggregate concrete (RCAC), offering potential insights into its compressive behavior, split tensile strength, and durability in acidic environments. Through a comprehensive investigation, this research aims to compare RCAC's mechanical properties with traditional concrete, shedding light on its suitability for structural applications. The experimental framework encompasses a review of literature, detailed testing of raw materials, and rigorous experimentation on RCAC's performance. Results and implications discussed herein contribute to advancing the understanding and application of RCAC in various construction contexts, bridging the gap between research in developed nations and emerging economies like India.
