Abstract :

Crumb rubber is a term usually applied to recycled rubber from automotive and truck scrap tyres. During the recycling process steel and fluff is removed leaving Tyre rubber with a granular consistency. Continued processing with a granulator and/or cracker mill, possibly with the aid of cryogenics or mechanical means, reduces the size of the particles further. It is not possible to discharge the rubbers in the environment because they decompose very slowly and cause lots of pollution. So, it is necessary to have a relevant use of these wastages. These waste materials can be used to improve some mechanical properties of concrete. Addition of rubber to concrete results in the improvements of some mechanical and dynamical properties. Such as more energy absorption, better ductility and better crack resistance. By using the waste tyre (crumb rubber) one can reduce the harmful effect on environment and provide sustainable concrete.
