Promoting the use of crumb rubber concrete in developing countries
Waste Management, 2008The use of accumulated waste materials in third world countries is still in its early phases. It will take courage for contractors and others in the construction industry to recycle selected types of waste materials in the concrete mixes. This paper addresses the recycling of rubber tires accumulated every year in Jordan to be used in concrete mixes ...

Optimising the Performance Of Crumb Rubber Modified Concrete
The Journal of Solid Waste Technology and Management, 2021The issue of management of end of life tyre (EOLT) rubber or crumb rubber presents major social, environmental and economic challenges especially for Small Island Developing States (SIDS) such as Trinidad and Tobago. A successful measure in foreign jurisdictions is to utilize this waste material for civil construction as a substitute for natural ...

Effect of rubber crumb on the microstructural properties of concrete
African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development, 2016This study evaluates the effect of rubber crumb on the microstructural properties of concrete which was used to partially replace fine aggregate by 0, 4, 8, 12, and 16% proportion and designated as M0, M4, M8, M12, and M16 respectively. The wet and hardened properties of concrete were investigated by conducting a slump test and a compressive strength ...

Workability and mechanical properties of crumb-rubber concrete
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2013The addition of crumb-rubber aggregate has a significant effect on concrete mix apparent porosity which affects both the plastic state workability and hardened state mechanical properties. New experimental data are presented and analysed to better understand this behaviour. Crumb-rubber-modified concrete exhibits reduced slump while maintaining a high

Experimental Research on Impermeability of Crumb Rubber Concrete
Advanced Materials Research, 2013An exhaustive study should be carried on impermeability of crumb rubber concrete in this paper. The orthogonal experimental design method was used in mixture proportion design and considered three factors and four levels respectively. Tests were carried out to investigate the behavior of different concretes with water to cement ratio, rubber content ...
