Surface modified used rubber tyre aggregates: effect on recycled concrete performance

Study On Waste Tyre Rubber As Concrete Aggregates

At present the disposal of waste tyres is becoming a major waste management problem in the world. It is estimated that 1.2 billions of waste tyre rubber produced globally per year. It is estimated that 11% of post consumer tyres are exported and 27% are sent to landfill, stockpiled or dumped illegally and only 4% is used for civil engineering projects. Hence efforts have been taken to identify ...

Performance of High-strength Concrete Made with Recycled Ceramic Aggregates

Recent scientific concerns to achieve sustainability in construction have suggested the implementation of using recycled aggregate in concrete because it has the potential to reduce the demand for extraction of natural raw materials and decrease the volume of wastes landfilled. In this respect, this study aims to investigate the suitability of using ceramic tile (CT) and ceramic sanitary (CS) w...

Used Of Recycled Tyre/Rubber as Course Aggregate and Stone Dust As Fine Aggregate in Cement Concrete Works

The present investigation aims at the study of properties of concrete in which stone dust is used as a partial replacement for coarse sand and tyre-chips of size 4.7 to 10 mm as partial replacement of coarse aggregate by weight.

Effects of Recycled Concrete Aggregates on Properties of Asphalt Concrete

Low Cycle Fatigue Behavior of Concrete with Recycled Concrete Aggregates

A comparison of concrete containing recycled concrete coarse aggregates and natural coarse aggregates subjected to high strain, low cycle compressive fatigue is presented. Using a strain based feedback control loop, concrete cylinders are compressed at 15µε/s to a specified strain then unloaded to zero stress for 10 cycles. After cycling, all samples are loaded to a strain of 0.008. Direct conc...
