“…It is noted that the addition of rubber granulates has decreased workability of the mixtures studied. Several researchers have shown that the shape and texture of rubber aggregates significantly affects the workability of concretes [13,31,32]. Thus, the deviation of the spherical shape leads to increase viscosity.…”

“…Small amount of entrapped air obtained in composites with rubber particles is due to better filling of empty pores at the rubber/cement interface, because of the presence of silica fume in the composite. Guneyisi et al (2004) indicate that 5% of rubber particles in the total volume of aggregate can be considered negligible in terms of concrete workability. On the contrary, the presence of steel fibres is associated with the decrease in concrete workability due to fibre tendency to interlock during the mixing process, which is also known as the "balling" effect .…”

“…The major cause for the drop in the strength is the softness of the rubber particles are much softer due to this while compressive load applied to the specimen the crack propagation was very fast around the rubber particles which will affect the rubber-cement matrix and leads to the failure [12][13]. Two point load was applied to the specimens and the breaking load for the specimens were measured.…”
