Experimental Study on Demolished Concrete Waste and Crumb Rubber as Partial Replacement of Coarse and Fine Aggregate in Concrete

H. Mohamed Thameem Ansari, Dr. M. Shahul Hameed

Abstract


The preservation of natural resources and the environment is important to modern development. Recycled aggregates are made from material recovered during demolition activities, which are then crushed, screened, and washed to get the desired grading. Concrete is made from recycled coarse aggregates derived from crushed concrete. With the rapid expansion of car production for the next generation, there is a possibility of an increase in crumb rubber. Crumb rubber can be disposed of in landfills and burned, both of which are damaging to the environment. The goal of this study is to find out how recycled materials can be used in concrete. This initiative's major purpose is to use crumb rubber as a fine aggregate and demolished structural waste as a coarse aggregate. This study will make use of concrete grade M30. Specimens such as cubes, cylinders, and prisms will be developed in the future, and each specimen will be cast in a distinct mix proportion. Mechanical properties tests are performed after 28 days taken from the curing chamber.
