nowadays, soil reinforcement using polymer elements have been investigated by a number of researchers in order to increase the load capacity of soils. reinforcing soils using fibers is a method of soil improvement, which offers a homogenous mixture in combination with soils, regarding their tensile strength. this combination maintains pressure loading capacity and properties in mutual resistant...

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the relations of rubber size, rubber content, and binder content in determination of optimum binder content for open graded friction course (OGFC). Mix gradation type B as specified in Specification for Porous Asphalt produced by the Road Engineering Association of Malaysia (REAM) was used in this study. Marshall specimens were prepared with fo...

This study presents an alternative for the combined revalorization of two wastes with high volumes generation, such as end-of-life tyres and glass. The experimental grid considered analysis joint use crumb rubber glass powder in mortars. Crumb is analysed a sand replacement at 10% 15% percentages, while is'. cement, considering effect maximum size particles (38 μm 45 μm). results obtained show ...

To improve the blast resistance of a wall system, it is necessary to enhance its energy absorption capabilities and/or increase its mass. Much research has been performed on improving the ductility, and thus the resistance, of a wall system using elastic materials externally attached to the tension side of a wall. This project investigated the static resistance of wall systems with elastic mate...

Asphalt crumb rubber is a type of pavement material formed by mixing asphalt cement with that derived from recycled tires. This eco-friendly approach aids in waste reduction and promotes environmental preservation incorporating materials into construction. The study aimed to examine the behavior mixtures modified rubber, made blending tire-derived cement. Adding improved performance mixtures, 8...
