The influence of secondary crushed stone on the strength and shrinkage of concrete was studied. The results showed that when granite coarse aggregate is replaced with crushed recycled concrete, the compressive strength of concrete is reduced by an average of 20% and the flexural strength by 3-10%. Concrete on recycled crushed stone has a high shrinkage. The shrinkage of concrete with a minimum consumption of recycled aggregate differs slightly from the shrinkage of concrete on granite crushed stone.
