Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction project plans to use 50% recycled aggregates and 50% natural aggregates. Discuss the potential impacts on the strength and performance of the concrete mix, as well as solutions to mitigate risks.

💡 Hint: Evaluate both advantages and concerns based on aggregate composition.

Question 2

Critically analyze a scenario where a civil engineer decides to exclusively use recycled aggregates for a high-stress application like a bridge. What challenges could arise and what considerations must be made?

💡 Hint: Think through both structural requirements and material characteristics.
