The growing quantity of tires and building trash piling up in landfills poses a serious threat to
the stability of the ecosystem. Researchers are exploring ways to reduce and use such …

A previous study proved that the confinement of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) effectively
improves the load capacity and ductility of concrete columns. High-density polyethylene …

This study investigates the mechanical properties and shear strength of rubberized
reinforced concrete (RC) beams with/without fibers with no web reinforcement. A total of 16 …

Abstract Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) material, which exhibits high tensile capacity, economical
cost, and excellent corrosion resistance, has attracted the interest of many researchers for …

Over the last few years, many studies were performed to investigate rubberized concrete's
behavior as a sustainable alternative for conventional concrete by replacing natural …

This paper proposed a new method to strengthen and repair concrete columns, which
combined active and passive confinement. The method involved the use of iron-based …

An investigation was conducted to assess the efficacy of using waste rubber as a substitute
for a portion of an aggregate to enhance concrete's sustainability. For the purpose of …

The flexible sponge/epoxy composite can wrap underwater artefacts in any shape and forms
a protective shell after curing, thus effectively wrapping and reinforcing the artefacts …

The use of hybrid GFRP and steel bars as main reinforcement increases the flexural
capacity of T-section concrete beams and reduces ductility. Adding recycled rubber to the …

Despite having many advantages, using rubber to produce reinforced concrete members
like beams is still restricted. When there is more waste tire rubber in concrete structures …
