Effect of pozzolan slurries on recycled aggregate concrete: Mechanical and durability performance

TL;DR: In this article, an economic and environmental approach was proposed to optimize the recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) performance. And the proposed strengthening technique improved the microstructure of the ITZ for RAC, making it denser and reduced the micro-cracks when compared with the untreated RAC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Waste to resource conversion of crumb rubber for production of sulphuric acid resistant concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the behavior of concrete with crumb rubber at various substitution levels (4, 4.5, 5%, 5% and 5.5%) under an acidic (sulphuric acid) aggressive environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustainable rubbers and rubber additives

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a panoramic sketch of various sustainable rubbers and functional rubber additives in this field and intend to provide a direction to their plausible future developments, which can be seen as a kind of future roadmap.

Experimental study on dynamic compressive behaviour of recycled tyre polymer fibre reinforced concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of recycled tyre polymer fiber (RTPF) on mechanical and durability performance of concrete has been increasingly studied in recent years, primarily because of the economic and sustainable feasibility of RTPF's application in construction industry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of silica fume and waste marble powder on the mechanical and durability properties of cellular concrete

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of silica fume (SF) and waste marble powder (WMP) on the mechanical and durability properties of cellular concrete have been investigated, and the results showed that appropriate SF and WMP replacements of cement significantly improved the structural and mechanical properties, especially after sulfate acid attack.

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.

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).
