• Properties of concrete prepared with waste tyre rubber particles of uniform and varying sizes (2015, background): “Discarded waste tyres often create ‘black pollution’ because they are not readily biodegradable and pose a potential threat to the environment (Nehdi and Khan, 2001).”
• Physico-mechanical and thermal performances of newly developed rubber-added bricks (2008, background): “The use of recycled tire rubber in PCC also helps alleviate disposal problems and address the growing public concern about the need to preserve natural sand and aggregates [6,7].”
• Rubber modified concrete improved by chemically active coating and silane coupling agent (2013, background): “Potential uses of rubber modified PCC have also been reported for highway sound walls, residential drive ways, garage floors and foundation pads for machinery and in railway stations where vibration damping is required [8].”
• Durability of Rubberized Mortar and Concrete (2007, methodology): “The research revealed that depending on the increase in cycles the difference between freeze-thaw durability according to weight loss also increases and this increase is clearer in the cubic specimens Benazzouk and Queneudec 2002; Zharieva et al. 2004; Nehdi and Khan 2001 .”
• Thermal insulation enhancement in concretes by adding waste PET and rubber pieces (2009, background): “Scrap-tires have been used in a variety of rubber and plastic products, burning for production of electricity, or as fuel for cement kilns, as modifiers in asphalt concrete [4,5].”
• Effect of crushed ceramic and basaltic pumice as fine aggregates on concrete mortars properties (2007, background): “Inclusion of recycled tyre rubber fibres in concrete was found to avoid the opening of cracks and increase energy absorption [3].”
