USING CRUMB RUBBER TO IMPROVE THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE FROM THE SUSTAINABILITY POINT OF VIEW
Abstract eng: In the past decade, the economy of China has been increasing at a remarkable speed, which causes the rapid increase of automobile industry. Researches in past years demonstrated that the incorporation of crumb rubber into concrete reduces the mechanical strength of concrete. However, properties such as plastic shrinkage cracking resistance, dry shrinkage cracking resistance, frost resistance, impact resistance, fatigue resistance etc. are improved due to the deformable feature of crumb rubber. Therefore, it is expected that using crumb rubber in concrete not only improves the properties of the material, but also reduces the environmental pressure of handling waste tires.
