Abstract
To address sustainable issues in construction, researchers and construction firms are focusing upon
utilizing recycled construction material. This present investigation is based on the use of recycled coarse aggregates
in reinforced concrete beams. Recycled Coarse Aggregate was replaced by 0%, 50% and 100% of Natural Coarse
Aggregates. Shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams were studied by varying longitudinal reinforcement ratios
ranging from 1.0 to 4.0. Load carrying capacities of the beams were observed by plotting the load deflection curves.
