Abstract:Ultrahigh-performance fiber-reinforced cement-based composite (UHPFRC) made with waste derived from scrap tires and oil refineries was tested in this study. The UHPFRC sample exhibited a maximum compressive strength of about 189 MPa at the end of 28 days. Steel fibers were recovered from scrap tires and were added up to 3% by volume in the UHPFRC samples. Such additions reduced cement flow by 11% but improved compressive strength by 21%. The equilibrium catalyst particles (ECAT) disposed of by oil refineries w… Show more
