Abstract
Solid waste management has gained a lot of attention to the research community now-a- days. There are various solid wastes, but waste tires are non- biodegradable nature therefore, it create major problem in environment. Discarded vehicle tires are the type of solid waste which is generally disposed by landfills method. But now a day's disposal of whole or shredded tires by land filling technique is ban by EU policies. An emerging use is the production of concrete, in which tire rubber particles partially or fully replace natural aggregates. This has the additional advantage of saving in natural constituent which is used in the production of concrete. This project study the experimental behavior of physical and mechanical properties of rubberized concrete The influence of factors such as rubber aggregate content and size, as well as curing time was also considered. There is M25 grade concrete use with fly ash. From this experimental study it is observed, that there great loss in strength, this type of concrete was acceptable for various architectural applications requiring medium to low compressive strength. Thus, the use of waste tire rubber for formation of concrete it is the best disposal method to protect the our environment
