Friction and fracture characteristics of engineered crumb-rubber concrete at microscopic lengthscale

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the friction and hardness of engineered crumb rubber-reinforced concrete with applications into railway sleeper ties and show that partial replacement of aggregates with crumb-rubber particle leads to an increase in the friction coefficient and the fracture toughness, and a slight decrease in strength properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

An alternative sustainable railway maintenance technique based on the use of rubber particles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an alternative solution by combining the benefits of both previous processes through using rubber particles (from waste tires) as part of the aggregate blown during the stoneblowing process in order to obtain an elastic granular layer that act as USPs, and then, reducing the economic and environmental problems associated with track maintenance, while using an abundant waste material.

Properties of high-performance cementitious composites containing recycled rubber crumb

TL;DR: In this paper, physical, mechanical properties and durability of High Performance Cementitious Composites containing rubber crumb (HPCC-R) were assessed, and the impact of different mix design methodologies, grading of rubber particles, and different curing conditions were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical strength and self-sensing capacity of smart cementitious composite containing conductive rubber crumbs

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of conductive rubber crumbs on the mechanical properties and self-sensing capacities of cementitious composites were investigated, and the rubberized composites with different types of crumbs were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved geotechnical behavior of an expansive soil amended with tire-derived aggregates having different gradations

TL;DR: In this article, the potential use of tire-derived aggregate (TDA) products as an additive to alleviate the inferior geotechnical properties of a subgrade deposit of clay soil with high expansivity was examined.

Concrete made with used tyre aggregate: durability-related performance

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of concrete that contains rubber aggregate made from used tyres (CTA) has been studied since the early 1990s, and the results showed that 5%, 10% and 15% of the volume of natural aggregate (NA) were replaced by aggregate derived from used tires (TA).

Hardened properties of concrete mixtures containing pre-coated crumb rubber and silica fume

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined an approach to pre-treat crumb rubber in conjunction with the addition of supplementary cementitious materials in order to mitigate the loss of mechanical properties in rubberized concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of concrete prepared with waste tyre rubber particles of uniform and varying sizes

TL;DR: In this paper, three groups of singly-sized rubber particle samples (3mm, 0.5mm and 0.3mm) and one sample of continuous size grading (prepared by blending the three singlysized samples to form the same particle distribution curve of sand) were used to replace 20% of the natural fine aggregate by volume.

Properties of concrete paving blocks made with waste marble

TL;DR: In this article, the paving blocks based on two cement types were used to replace aggregate with waste marble, and physical and mechanical tests were performed on blocks so produced, and the cement type turns out to be an important factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Workability, mechanical properties, and chemical stability of a recycled tyre rubber-filled cementitious composite

TL;DR: The workability and mechanical properties of mortar containing shredded automobile and truck tyres were evaluated in this paper, where two different shapes of rubber particles were used as constituents of mortar: (1) granules about 2 mm in diameter, and (2) shreds having two sizes which were, nominally, 5.5 mm×1.2 mm and 10.8 mm × 1.8mm (length×diameter).
