“…The reductions reported for the OMC have been mainly ascribed to the TDA material's hydrophobic character and hence its lower water adsorption-retention capacity (being mainly less than 4%) compared with that of the fine soil particles, particularly clays [16]. It should be mentioned that, while the reported results for the MDUW are fairly consistent, a limited number of studies have reported either negligible or increasing trends for the OMC with respect to increasing the TDA content [42][43][44]. These unexpected trends may be attributed to TDA segregation (and hence TDA clustering) effects caused by inadequate soil-TDA mixing during sample preparation for the compaction test [19,39].…”

This study aims at modeling the compaction characteristics of fine-grained soils blended with sand-sized (0.075–4.75 mm) recycled tire-derived aggregates (TDAs). Model development and calibration were performed using a large and diverse database of 100 soil–TDA compaction tests (with the TDA-to-soil dry mass ratio ≤ 30%) assembled from the literature. Following a comprehensive statistical analysis, it is demonstrated that the optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry unit weight (MDUW) for soil–TDA blends (across different soil types, TDA particle sizes and compaction energy levels) can be expressed as universal power functions of the OMC and MDUW of the unamended soil, along with the soil to soil–TDA specific gravity ratio. Employing the Bland–Altman analysis, the 95% upper and lower (water content) agreement limits between the predicted and measured OMC values were, respectively, obtained as +1.09% and −1.23%, both of which can be considered negligible for practical applications. For the MDUW predictions, these limits were calculated as +0.67 and −0.71 kN/m3, which (like the OMC) can be deemed acceptable for prediction purposes. Having established the OMC and MDUW of the unamended fine-grained soil, the empirical models proposed in this study offer a practical procedure towards predicting the compaction characteristics of the soil–TDA blends without the hurdles of performing separate laboratory compaction tests, and thus can be employed in practice for preliminary design assessments and/or soil–TDA optimization studies.

“…Various tests for tyre chips has been carried in laboratory such as water absorption, tensile strength, compression and Specific gravity. For carrying the test with soft clay, various comparative study has been made through the existing researches and experiments [9].Thus the usage of tyre chips not only reduces the waste but it also helps in saving the natural resources, energy and to increase the stability of soft soil [1]. Water absorption of tyre chips 4%…”

Abstract. In order to reduce the generated waste in industry the concept of reusability is adopted as an application in the civil engineering field. In this study, the experiments were performed by using shredded tyre chips, chips of fly ash bricks in partial replacement with aggregates passing through 12.5 mm sieve and retaining on 10 mm sieve (IS-Indian standard). The experiments with partial replacement of stone columns were carried out at various proportions of tyre chips and fly ash brick chips in soft clay. Corresponding settlement rate was noted by loading the stone column gradually through a hydraulic jack for various L/D ratios. On comparison the final results it was concluded that the stone column with replacement of 75% tyre chips and 25% coarse aggregate proved good to carry maximum load and with lower settlement rate than ordinary stone column without replacement.

“…In the present study, the shredded rubber tyre is selected as an additive and randomly mixed with the soil for 0%, 5%,10%, and 15% by weight of soil. The % of rubber content is decided on the basis of previous studies (22,25,27,31,33,34,36) . The strength characteristics and swelling potential of treated soil are examined by performing the Unconfined compression strength test, CBR test, and Swelling pressure test respectively.…”

Objectives: To determine the strength and swelling behavior of black cotton soil (expansive soil) using a shredded rubber tyre as an additive. Methods: Series of unconfined compressive strength and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests were carried out on black cotton soil mixed with 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% of shredded rubber tyres, and the results were compared with untreated soil samples. The study also investigated the influence of shredded rubber on swelling characteristics of black cotton soil by performing the swelling pressure test. Findings: From the experimental results, it is inferred that the optimum addition of a 10% shredded rubber tyre can effectively improve the strength behavior of black cotton soil. The unconfined compressive strength and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of soil stabilized with 10% of shredded rubber tyre increased by 32 % and 49.3% respectively as compared to the untreated soil. An illustration presented shows the effect of increased CBR in terms of the reduction of 18% pavement thickness. This may reduce the total cost of the project. The present study also investigated the swelling potential of Black cotton soil and it is found to be decreased by 33.33% for the addition of 15% shredded rubber soil as compared to untreated soil. Novelty: The use of shredded rubber in expansive soil increased its CBR value, leading to a reduction in 18% of pavement thickness. Hence, it may lead to a further reduction in the total cost of the project. Also, the disposal problem of waste rubber tyres is resolved up to a certain extent.
