Once I questioned a person, what did you done in your project. The person answered me that they used rubbers crums as a partial substitute for aggregates and I'm keep on listening what the person will say about the result. Person replied me after the addition of ruber crums as partial substitute the concrete offers higher strength. I asked whether you have used crums as a replacement fine or coarse aggregate, person reacted that they have used for the replacement of coarse aggregate.
Rubbers are employed in dampers for seismic resistance activity, but using as a replacement for coarse aggregates offer strength ?
If any relevant articles found send me.
Thank you

The rubber use in concrete and pavement material provides an environmentally sustainable method for disposing of the millions of tires that are annually generated.compressive and tensile strengths of rubberized concrete decrease with the increase in rubber content, but some other properties like toughness and ductility of the hardened rubberized mix increases. A typical Rubber Surface is made up of EPDM (virgin rubber) and/or recycled rubber granules combined with a polyurethane binder that is poured directly over existing concrete. By combining the best binding agent with high quality EPDM granules, ElastaStone is the perfect solution to your rubber surfacing needs.
