COMPARATIVE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH CONCRETE BY PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF FINE AGGREGATE BY RUBBER DUST AND COARSE AGGREGATE BY TYRE CHIPS

Adarsh Mishra, Saman Khan

Abstract :

Solid waste management has gained a lot of attention to meet the requirements of globalization in construction of buildings and other structures. Pertaining non–biodegradable nature of waste tyres has become a problem of interest. In the investigation as the substitution of natural river sand to stone dust is taken to 30% replacement of weight of sand in ratio 1:1.66:3.03 of concrete the maximum strength to gain of concrete. In the present investigation as the substitution of natural river sand to Rubber dust is taken to 0.5%to 1.5%replacement of weight of sand of concrete the maximum strength to gain of concrete while the substitution of aggregate to tyre chips is taken 3–6%. It was observed that beyond 5% replacement of rubber dust and tyre chips unable to give acceptable strength to instead leads to subside in strength of concrete.
