Feasibility of crumb rubber as fine aggregate in concrete

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract Production of tires in Indonesia increase steadily, however, utilization of waste tires is very limited. Thus, it is necessary to look for an alternative using waste tires for concrete construction. The objectives focus on using crumb rubber as a waste tire with variations in substitution of crumb rubber to fine aggregate in the

Microstructure and Performance Optimization of Barley Husk Ash–Blended Mortars: A Sustainable Approach to Cement Substitution

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Barley husk ash (BHA), an agricultural byproduct rich in pozzolanic oxides, was optimized as a sustainable cement substitute. Statistical modeling and experimental validation confirmed 22.75% BHA as the optimal replacement, enhancing mechanical and durability performance while advancing eco‐efficient construction practices.

Performance of Recycled Brick Aggregate Concrete Reinforced With Hybrid Rubber and Polypropylene Fibers Under Mechanical, Impact, and Elevated‐Temperature Loading

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Recycled brick aggregate (RBA) offers a practical route to reduce natural aggregate consumption, but its impact and elevated‐temperature performance remain unclear when combined with hybrid fibers. This study evaluates whether rubber fiber (RF) and polypropylene fiber (PPF) can improve the impact resistance (IR) and residual compressive strength (CS ...
