description The solution to environmental problems caused by the generation of construction brick waste is its use as a substitute for natural gravel aggregate in highway base material. The preparation of basalt fiber cement stabilized recycled brick aggregate base material is by adding basalt fiber to cement stabilized recycled waste brick mixture. With the help of nonlateral compressive strength test, indirect tensile (splitting) strength test, and flexural tensile strength test, the influence of basalt fiber with different dosages on the compressive strength, crack resistance, and durability of cement stabilized recycled waste brick mixture was analyzed. The effects of basalt fiber on water loss rate, dry shrinkage strain, and frost resistance of cement stabilized recycled waste brick mixture were analyzed by dry shrinkage test and freeze-thaw test. The bonding morphology of fiber and cement slurry was studied by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that when the waste brick aggregate content is 30% and basalt fiber content is 1‰, the 28-day compressive strength of cement stabilized waste brick mixture is 19% higher than that of the specimen without fiber; indirect tensile strength increased by 36.6%; flexural strength increased by 37.0%; water loss rate decreased by 15.5%; the coherent shrinkage strain decreased by 30.3%; and BDR value (compressive strength loss percentage) increased by 12.3%. Basalt fiber and cement slurry have good bonding force and friction force, which act as tensile reinforcement in the mixture. Fiber bundle and fiber filament compose a fiber network to enwrap the mixture, so that the fiber network and mixture are embedded with each other, thereby improving the mechanical properties and durability of cement stabilized recycled waste brick mixture.
