One of the most extensive applications of recycled construction and demolition waste is as recycled aggregate in substitution of natural aggregate. An application for the fine fraction is investigated in this study by preparing lightweight mortars with different types of fine recycled aggregate from concrete waste and rubble. The properties of the materials are evaluated by means of physical and chemical characterization, their mechanical properties are tested, and the economic viability of the final product evaluated. In conclusion, despite the significant differences noted between the lightweight mortars and those incorporating natural aggregates, the former remain a technically and economically viable alternative. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
