The effects of the size and volumetric content of rubber powder on properties of concrete, including flexural strength, compressive strength and permeability, were studied in this paper. Two different particle sizes (20 meshand 60 mesh) of rubber powder were chosen to replace the sand with volume content of sand as5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% respectively. The results showed that both flexural and compressive strength of concrete, especially compressive strength, decreased with the increase of rubber content. Moreover, the smaller the particle of rubber powder, the greaterer the strength of the concrete, which was not obvious as effect of rubber powder content on the strength of concrete. The impermeability of concrete increased with the increase of rubber powder content. The electric flux of concrete with 30% rubber powder reduced to about 900 C, which was only 1/5 of that with 5%. At the same content, smaller rubber particle has positiveeffects on the impermeability of concrete. Keywords: rubber concrete,rubber powder, compressive strength,flexural strength, permeability performance.

Applying modified waste rubber particle to surface mortar can give full play of the unique characteristics to utilize the waste and decrease environmental pollution. In order to study the application performance of crumb rubber mortar, five different mortar proportions are selected to determine the compressive strength, flexural strength, impact strength and thermal aging strength. The results show that rubber particles mortar possess excellent toughness, impact resistance and heat aging properties.

Experimental studies on the compressive strength and frost resistance of rubber concrete during different maintenance period have been carried through in this paper. The results show that: the concrete compressive strength reduces with the incorporation of rubber particles, but its frost resistance increases, and with the growth of the maintenance period, its compression performance increases; however, its frost resistance remained unchanged.

Non-biodegradable rubber waste from tyres can be employed for the making of pseudo-ductile cementitious composites (PDCC) which requires a matrix of low toughness. In the present study, compressive strength and fracture toughness are measured for cementitious mortar containing small volume of sand, and with or without rubber particles. Also micro-hardness testing, mercury intrusion porosimetry and scanning electron microscopy are performed. According to the test results, the incorporation of 10%~11% rubber particles with average size of 0.4mm or 0.2mm by volume decreases the compressive strength by 40%~60% and the fracture toughness by 10%~40% which makes preparation of PDCC easier. These can be explained by the presence of cracks at the interface between rubber particle and matrix, as well as the increased porosity and specifically the increased content of large capillary pores in the cementitious composites with rubber particles which is considered as solid air-entraining agent. Moreover, there is a more significant increase in the content of capillary pores for composites with small size rubber particles, explaining the lower strength and toughness when these particles are employed.

abstract: It is extremely important that the quality control of the concrete block used in structural masonry is conducted based on standard procedures that allow reliable estimation of the properties of these components. This work aims to analyze and evaluate the influence of the concrete block moisture on the result of the compression test. Hollow concrete blocks were prepared and subsequently maintained in different environments for various periods of time and under different conditions of temperature and humidity to determine the influence of the type of drying on the relative humidity of the block at the time of testing and consequently on its compressive strength. As a conclusion, it can be stated that, because it is necessary to use water in the process, the grinding rectification of the faces of the blocks led them to have high humidity, above 70%. If tested in this condition, the results of the compressive strength tests will be lower than that of blocks under usual environmental conditions. No differences were found in the average block strength when they were kept dry in the controlled environment of the laboratory during periods of 24 or 48 h. After grinding, it is not necessary to dry the blocks inside an oven at 40ºC before the tests; simply leaving them at a usual room temperature of 23ºC and humidity of 40 ± 5% for 24h is sufficient. The attempt to accelerate drying in an oven at 100ºC is not adequate because this leads to an increase in the compressive strength. From the results, it was possible to determine expressions to correlate the compressive strength as a function of the moisture of the block at the time of the test. The best-fit expressions are distinct for each block type, but the formulations are consistent in indicating a considerable difference in resistance as a function of moisture.

Chloride corrosion test was carried out in 4% NaCl solution to study the chloride corrosion resistance of rubber concrete. Rubber concrete was prepared by using 20 mesh, 1∼3 mm, and 3∼6 mm rubber particles instead of sand by 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of the cementitious material mass. The P-wave velocity and compressive strength of rubber concrete were measured. The microstructure of rubber concrete corroded by chloride was analyzed by SEM. The micromorphology was compared with the macrofailure characteristics under uniaxial compression. The results show that the rubber concrete was still in the early stage of erosion. With the increase of immersion time at the age of 110 days, the P-wave velocity and compressive strength of concrete were generally on the rise. Furthermore, during the period of erosion, the mechanical properties of rubber concrete increased with the increase of rubber particle size and decreased with the increase of the content. Therefore, when the rubber particle size was 3∼6 mm and the content was 5%, the antierosion performance was the best. This study has a certain guiding significance for the chloride corrosion resistance of rubber concrete.
