Collision behaviours of rubberized concrete

Cement and Concrete Research, 1997
Rubberized concrete is recommended for highway barriers. It was observed that rubberized concrete's acquired competency to absorb energy resulted in a decrease in damages and injuries during the collision of vehicles with barriers. In this study, normal concrete was combined with two different sizes of rubber aggregate in order to examine the ...

Engineering properties of rubberized concrete

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1992
Growing piles of discarded tires are potential sources of fire and health hazards. The current disposal methods are wasteful and costly. As a possible solution to the problem of scrap-tire disposal, an experimental study was conducted to examine the potential use of rubber aggregate (tire chips and crumb rubber) as mineral aggregate substitute in ...

Experimental investigation on the floating of rubber particles of crumb rubber concrete

Construction and Building Materials, 2018
Abstract Crumb rubber concrete has been reported to possess many favorable qualities for engineering applications, such as higher ability of deformation, higher toughness, damping ratio and good performance of freeze-thaw, anti-cracking and resistance to water or chloride ion penetration.

A Review – Manufacturing on Rubberized Concrete Filled Recycled Tire Rubber

Key Engineering Materials, 2015
This paper aims to investigate the potential use of recycled tire rubber in concrete. In Malaysia, rubber consumption of tires in January – June 2014, rose up to 8.4% from 0.388 million tonnes. These numbers keep on increasing year-over-year with the numbers of vehicles, as do the future problems relating to waste tires.

Rubberized-PET and Rubberized-Coconut Shell as Fine Aggregate in Concrete

2016
Worldwide wastes of plastic bottles which are also known as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), rubber tyres and coconut shells increase due to its large scale production, high demand in scale revolution and also disposal problems encountered. This is an environmental issue as waste plastic bottles, tyre rubber and coconut shell are difficult to ...

Seismic behaviour of rubberized concrete columns

2023
In New Zealand, the annual generation of approximately 6.5 million end-of-life tires has become a growing concern due to their problematic disposal practices. Despite the relatively small volume, official estimates have indicated a recovery rate of around 30% in recent decades. Therefore, recognizing recycled tire materials as a valuable source of high-

Durability and Recycling of Rubber Concrete

Journal of Materials and Polymer Science
The addition of crumb rubber particles causes a decrease in the compressive strength of concrete. This is particularly observed beyond 3.6% crumb rubber addition with respect to the total weight of the aggregates. The accelerated carbonation also indicates an increase in the CO2 ingress, which is partially due to the low quality of the interface rubber

Enhancement of the Impact Resistance of Concrete by Rubberized Concrete Overlays

This study investigates the mechanisms by which rubberized concrete overlays enhance the impact resistance of substrate concrete. Drop-weight impact tests were conducted to assess the effects of rubber particle size, rubber content, and interface roughness on the impact failure modes and life of the overlays.A Weibull distribution model was applied to ...
