Assessment of Using Recycled Steel Fiber in Concrete for Techno-eco-Efficiency

Abstract

Davide Maximov

Concrete production is a significant contributor to environmental degradation due to its high energy consumption and carbon emissions. In recent years, the incorporation of recycled materials has emerged as a sustainable approach to mitigate the environmental impact of concrete construction. This study investigates the techno-eco-efficiency of utilizing recycled steel fiber in concrete. Through a comprehensive analysis encompassing technical performance, environmental sustainability, and economic viability, this research aims to elucidate the benefits and challenges associated with this innovative approach. Results indicate that incorporating recycled steel fiber enhances concrete properties while reducing environmental burdens, thus offering a promising avenue for sustainable infrastructure development.
