Abstract
Results obtained showed improvement in the compression toughness by increase of crumb rubber content up to 15% and change into the behaviour of normal concrete to ductile instead of brittle. The toughness index and the specific compression toughness of concrete specimens indicated crumb rubber could be satisfactorily utilized with steel fibre to present a good performance under compressive loading and to keep the environment clean and healthy by recycling of waste tire.
