| Abstract Scope |
Most countries around the world already device ways of recycling wastes products to partially replace and conserve natural resources used in producing concrete. This paper give the performance of glass rubber concrete subjected to chemical resistance. Cement, water, fine sand, gravel, crushed glass of 4.75 mm and shredded tyre of 19mm were used as partial replacement in the composition of mix ratio of 1:2:4 with 0.50 water/cement ratio. 0% was the control and partial replacement was 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by volume. Grade 25 concrete in (100x100x100) mm cube was produce and cured for 28 days. Physical and chemical properties, slump test and chemical resistance tests were carried out. Results show that slump decreases with increase in crushed glass and shredded tyre and 5% partial replacement produced high resistance to chemical resistance with 26.69 N/mm2. Therefore, glass rubcrete shows potential for becoming an additional sustainable solution for waste recycling. |
