Opis

Waste rubber tires are accumulated worldwide in large amounts into landfills causing an increasing hazard to the environment. In order to eliminate this serious environmental threat there is a keen interest in the recycling or reclaiming of these solid wastes. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the potential of rubberized concrete to be used in structural applications. Through the experimental procedure the basic properties of rubberized concrete are analysed carrying out conclusions on how these properties could be negative or positive for future potential applications.
