The present work presents the results of the experimental investigation of using crushed concrete as recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) and new models of hybrid deep beams. Six specimens of deep beams have been tested under static loads: two specimens as controls and three hybrid specimens with different types of hybridization models for concrete sections (horizontal, curved, and arched). This study aims to search for the optimum distribution of the concrete types for the hybrid deep beams such that the lowest cost is obtained and the RCA obtained from building demolition waste is introduced into the concrete mixes at 100%. The behavior has been tracked by the cracking and failure loads, loading history, crack width, and toughness. It was found that the capacities increased by 7.7, 18.7, 17.2, and 28.2%, respectively, in the horizontal, curved, arched, and arched with inclined stirrups hybrid models compared to the control specimen with RCA. Moreover, toughness was enhanced for the same specimens by 50.9, 71.1, 100.5, and 144.6%, respectively, compared to the control specimen with RCA.
