“…As per concluded by previous researchers, the strength of compacting concrete reduces because of the adding of rubber aggregate [3,[20][21][22] but both the flexural and compressive strength increase in case of adding rubber aggregate [1]. It is obvious from this research that by adding the silica fume to the modified rubber aggregate pervious concrete, both the flexural and compressive strength increase more that those without silica fume.…”

Abstract-Many researchers are trying to obtain a pervious concrete with better physical and mechanical properties to be used in pavement. To achieve the optimized pervious concrete, different researchers have been using different materials, especially those waste materials which are existing worldwide, specifically in the compactly populated areas. Discarded tires are among them and rubber tire particles are being currently used to be considered as recycled waste materials. In this paper a combination of polymer, silica fume and rubber aggregate from rubber tire particles were used to obtain an optimized pervious concrete. The produced concrete's properties were studied. The results indicate that this pervious concrete with the optimum replacing ratio of silica fume, polymer and rubber aggregate to mineral aggregate has higher flexural and compressive strength. The relative flexural and compressive strength of this pervious concrete has been increased 31% and 18% compared to the mineral aggregate pervious concrete. The most properties of this pervious concrete are enhanced. The impact resistance of this pervious concrete is improved 8% compared to mineral aggregate pervious concrete and the permeability meet the standard of Open-Graded Fraction Course. This pervious concrete significantly reduces the elasticity modulus of usual pervious concrete. The impact resistances improved remarkably

“…Other factors that reduce RuC strength include segregation, lower overall stiffness of the composite and casting and consolidation techniques [28]. Whilst such reduction is well documented in the literature [14,17,24,25,[29][30][31], strength seems to be influenced by rubber content, size and properties, as well as mix parameters and proportions (i.e. water to binder ratio (w/b), type of chemical admixture and binder material).…”

“…Whilst some researchers have reported satisfactory workability at all rubber contents and sizes [13,14], others have measured zero slump at 50% [15] or 80% [16] aggregate replacement by volume. Previous experimental work often measures concrete workability through slump [17,18].…”

Abstract. This study explores the effect of different percentage of crumb rubber on compressive strength of fly ash based geopolymer concrete. This research attempted to produce rubberized geopolymer concrete as an environmentally friendly, lightweight and durable product. Crumb rubber with ranged size from 73 µm to 375 µm was used in order to replace fine aggregates in geopolymer concrete. The replacements of crumb rubber were 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% in the fly ash based geopolymer concrete. The ratio of fly ash to alkaline activator was 2.5 and the ratio of Na2SiO3 to NaOH was fixed at 2.0. After the curing process, the strengths of the samples were tested on days 7 and 28. The results show that there is a reduction in all compressive strength for crumb rubber mixture, but still higher than normal rubberized concrete. Rubberized geopolymer concrete is a suitable solution in some non structural applications.
