Abstract: Architectural Institute of Japan (AIJ) established and published "Recommendation for Mix Design, Production and Construction Practice of Concrete with Recycled Concrete Aggregate" in October 2014 based on the Japan Industrial Standards for recycled aggregate and recycled aggregate concrete. The recommendation shows the standard specifications for the investigation of demolished reinforced concrete structures which become the resource of recycled aggregate and the production and quality control of recycled aggregate. It also recommends the appropriate type of recycled aggregate concrete according to the condition of the part or the component of a building, and prescribes the mix proportioning, production technique, transportation method, execution technique, quality control method for recycled aggregate concrete. In the appendices, lists of recycled aggregates and recycled aggregate concretes certified by the Japanese government are shown, and typical application cases of these recycled aggregate concretes to buildings are outlined.
