Studying the properties of rubberized concrete
Abstract: Accumulation of waste rubber tyres increases day by day. This is one of the main causes of land pollution. The rubber tyre is non-biodegradable waste that cannot decompose even after a long period. Researchers are suggesting various ways to manage rubber tyre waste. Rubberized concrete is one of them prepared by using a shredded rubber tyre. This research study was conducted by using a shredded rubber tyre for the replacement of the coarse aggregate in the normal concrete mix. The variation in properties of rubberized concrete with variation in percentage replacement of coarse aggregate with rubber tyre is presented in the results. All the replacements are done on M25 grade concrete.
Keywords: Rubberised concrete, Compressive strength, Slump value, Workability.
