In this study, construction waste (CW) from crushed concrete and mortar was used as coarse aggregate. CW was collected from a plant in the city of São Carlos, in the State of São Paulo. Samples were standardized by sieving (meshes: 19 mm, 12.5 mm, 9.5 mm, 6.3 mm and 4.75 mm) to maintain the same particle size distribution of the basalt stone (Fig. 3).
