Comparisons Physical Properties Between Concrete Paver Vs Rubber Cement Composite Paver

Abstract

The objective of this research paper is to study about the waste tyre crumb rubber granules as a partially
concrete replacement by different percentage of facing layer thickness and without facing layer in the production of
rubber cement composite paver block. The physical properties of RCCRP compressive strength, flexural strength,
abrasion strength density, and water absorption testing by the IS 15658:2006 method. This all physical properties are
depending upon the ratio of crumb rubber uses. The result showed that the with facing layer at 15 mm, 25 mm,totally
rubberized and without facing layer had little effect on compressive strength, flexural strength and abrasion resistance
properties. The absorption of water is also important for the service life of the product. The crumb rubber paver block also
performed quite well in both compressive strength and abrasion resistance. The rubber cement composite paver block is
suitable for nonstructural purpose such as lightweight, easily installation for the walkway, sidewalk and playing area
application.
