Role of recycled vehicle tires quantity and size on the properties of metakaolin-based geopolymer rubberized concrete

Abdulrahman Albidah et al.

Summary: The increasing demand for high-strength concrete construction has led to concerns over the carbon dioxide emissions and resource consumption caused by the production of conventional cement. This study explores the potential use of geopolymer or alkali-activated composites and recycled rubber as alternatives to cement-based binders. The results show that introducing recycled rubber into metakaolin-based geopolymer mixes can enhance the workability, flexural strength, and compressive strength of the concrete, making it suitable for non-structural and structural applications in construction.

The effect of scoria, perlite and crumb rubber aggregates on the fresh and mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete

Fatemeh Hamidi et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the assessment of fresh and mechanical performance of geopolymer concrete technologies, specifically rubberised geopolymer concrete (RGC) and lightweight geopolymer concrete (LWGC). The results showed that RGC exhibited improved flowability, compressive and tensile strengths, and strain-hardening behavior compared to plain GC. LWGC, on the other hand, had issues with segregation at certain proportions of lightweight aggregates. The mechanical properties of LWGC improved within a specific range of scoria content.

Compressive and flexural characteristics of geopolymer rubberized concrete reinforced with recycled tires steel fibers

Abdulaziz S. Alsaif et al.

Summary: The manufacturing of ordinary Portland cement concrete generates carbon dioxide and causes air pollution. Geopolymer concrete and the incorporation of waste tire materials into concrete have shown potential as sustainable alternatives with improved properties. This paper investigates the compressive and flexural behaviors of geopolymer concrete made with and without rubber and/or steel fibers, demonstrating the synergy between these materials and their use as a semi-flexible composite with adequate strength and improved ductility. This makes it an ideal alternative material for industrial floors and pavement.

Fresh and anisotropic-mechanical properties of 3D printable ultra-high ductile concrete with crumb rubber

Junhong Ye et al.

Summary: A novel ultra-high ductile concrete (UHDC) modified with crumb rubber was developed for 3D concrete printing. Mechanical tests revealed that the printed UHDC had higher deformability and energy dissipation in certain directions compared to mold-cast UHDC. Additionally, minimal anisotropy was found in flexural strength, but significant anisotropy in flexural deformability, compressive strength and flexural energy dissipation capacity of the printed UHDC.
