“…Thus, the utilization of steel slag as a cementing component should be given a priority from technical, economical and environmental considerations [2]. Previous research studies [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] indicate that steel slag has great value as a secondary resource. Ahmedzade et al [3] found that steel slag used as a coarse aggregate could improve the mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures.…”

“…In addition, limited research was found in the literature regarding use of crumb rubber in cement stabilized mixtures typically used as a base course or subbase course in the pavement structure in spite of a long history of investigation for these waste materials in civil engineering applications. These layers' potential to consume large quantities of natural resources as compared with other civil engineering applications (Cao 2007;Barišić et al 2014). To fill these gaps in the literature, the authors investigated the effect of cement content on the performance of cement-bound aggregate mixtures (CSAMs) and rubberized cement-bound aggregate mixtures (RCSAMs).…”

An investigation and comparison is made of the effect of cement content on the performance of rubberized cement-stabilized aggregate mixtures and on cement-stabilized aggregate mixtures containing no rubber (RCSAMs and CSAMs). These materials are intended to be used as a base course for pavement structures. Three cement contents (3%, 5%, and 7% by dry weight of aggregate) were investigated. Rubberized mixtures were manufactured by replacing 30% of one aggregate fraction that has a similar gradation of crumb rubber.Performance was evaluated under static and dynamic testing. The investigated properties are unconfined compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, indirect tensile static modulus, toughness, dynamic modulus of elasticity, dynamic modulus of rigidity and dynamic Poisson's ratio. Increasing cement content increases strength of both types of mixtures, especially in the CSAMs. It is found that using crumb rubber at low cement content is more feasible than with high cement contents. Stiffnesses increased for both types of mixture as cement content increased but decreased on incorporation of crumb rubber. Energy absorption capacity was inversely related to stiffness. Mesostructural investigation revealed that the cracks were propagated through the rubber particles for all cement contents.

“…Different degrees of slag surface voids fulfilment with cement paste result in inconsistent improvement of compressive strength. This phenomenon is presented and explained in more details in [27]. The mentioned positive effect is backed up by the almost parallel regression curves shown on Fig.…”
