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 ...

Observations on Rubberized Concrete Behavior

Cement, Concrete, and Aggregates, 1993
Abstract As a possible solution to the problem of scrap-tire disposal, an experimental study was conducted to examine the potential use of tire chips and crumb rubber as aggregate substitutes in portland-cement concrete mixes. In this study, strength, durability, and toughness as well as workability, unit weight, and volume change were ...

Review of Crumb Rubber Concrete

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
Rubber concrete acted as one kinds of building materials came from the traditional modification concrete, and it had the excellent thermal insulation properties, such as light, good toughness, good thermal insulation, so it had been initially used in civil engineering, such as railways, highways and so it’s like.

Rubberized Portland Cement Concrete

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 1999
The use of recycled tire rubber in a portland cement concrete (PCC) mixture is investigated as a possible alternative for nonconventional PCC mixtures. This study is focused on the determination of the practicality of producing such mixes and evaluating their engineering properties. An experimental program was developed to use two types of tire rubber (

Properties of Crumb Rubber Concrete

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2005
Crumb rubber is a material produced by shredding and commutating used tires. There is no doubt that the increasing piles of used tires create environmental concerns. The long-term goal of this research is to find means to dispose of the crumb rubber by placement of the rubber in portland cement concrete and still provide a final product with good ...

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 ...

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
