Experimental Investigation On Rubberised Green Concrete

Abstract

In order to produce rubberized green concrete, a sustainable building material, this study explores the possibility of adding rubber particles from recycled tires to green concrete. The study intends to address the large carbon footprint of conventional concrete production as well as environmental issues related to the disposal of waste tires. The mechanical and durability characteristics of concrete mixtures that substitute natural aggregates with varied percentages of rubber material are the main focus of the experimental inquiry. To evaluate the performance of rubberized green concrete, extensive tests are carried out, including assessments of durability, tensile strength, flexural strength, and compressive strength.

According to preliminary research, adding rubber paflicles to concrete weakens it overall but increases its flexibility, energy absorption, and impact resistance. The ideal balance strength for rubber content and durability are established, providing information about the real-world uses of rubberized green concrete in building. According to the study's findings, rubberized green concrete can be a practical substitute for some structural and non-su•uctural applications, supporting waste management strategies and environmentally friendly building techniques. To optimize mix designs and Investigate long-tenn perfonnance in diverse environmental circumstances, more research is advised.
