Abstract

The use of recycled fibers from crumb rubber waste for concrete is a very attractive approach, with such benefits as performance enhancement, low-cost raw materials, and reduced needs for landfilling. This project undergoes the study of general advantages of fiber reinforcement and study of Mechanical properties by use of crumb rubber waste fibers for concrete in structures. Expected outcome on the study of recycled crumb rubber waste fibers for fiber-reinforced concrete can show a significant toughness increase. In these studies, were carried in accordance with utilization of wide range of fiber dosage rates, from 0.2 to 1.0 vol.%. The results were further analyzed by comparison of mechanical properties and found that 1% addition of RSRC can be utilized in proportion.
