Abstract

The use of scrap tyre rubber in the preparation of concrete has been thought as an alternative disposal of such waste to protect the environment. In this study an attempt has been made to identify the various properties necessary for the design of concrete mix with the coarse tyre rubber chips as aggregate in a systematic manner. Scrap tyre rubber chips, has been used as coarse aggregate with the replacement of conventional coarse aggregate Concrete is one of the most popular building materials. The construction industry is always increases its uses and applications.
Therefore, it is required to find alternative materials to reduce the cost of concrete. On the other hand, Non-biodegradable waste i.e. water bottles, cool drink bottles and disposable glasses, shredded or crumbed rubber etc., is creating a lot of problems in the environment and its disposal becoming a great difficulty. The objective of this study is to investigate the use of rubber pieces as coarse aggregate in the concrete. Compressive strength, of concrete is measured and comparative analysis is made.
