Abstract The continuous demand for concrete places substantial strain on natural aggregate resources and simultaneously generates vast quantities of construction waste. Addressing these challenges, In this study, the practical application of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA), derived from concrete debris, as a partial replacement for natural coarse aggregate (NCA) in new concrete. Multiple concrete mixes were prepared, incorporating varying proportions of RCA. To ensure optimal workability, a superplasticizer was added to all formulations. These concretes were then extensively tested for their compressive, split tensile, and flexural strengths at different curing periods. Furthermore, the internal quality of the concrete was assessed using a non-destructive method. Our findings demonstrate the influence of RCA content on concrete's performance properties, offering valuable insights for developing more sustainable construction materials.
