Concrete-filled hollow steel (CFHS) has become more popular due to its advantages and benefits compared to reinforced concrete. This paper presents the experimental investigation on the performance of rubberized pozzolanic concrete-filled hollow steel column (RuPCFHS) under monotonic and cyclic lateral load in comparison to bare hollow steel column and normal concrete-filled hollow steel column (NCFHS). The test parameters included the type of concrete infill and the level of axial load. Modified rubberized pozzolanic concrete with comparable compressive strength to that of normal concrete was used. Two types of axial load conditions: no axial load and 20% axial load were considered in the testing. The test results indicate that the performance of the columns improved when concrete infill was introduced in the hollow steel. The application of axial loading also increased the capacity of the column specimens. RuPCFHS behaved with comparable performance with NCFHS in both monotonic and cyclic testing. RuPCFHS recorded the highest increment in the energy dissipation capability when 20% axial load was applied to the column when compared to the other specimens. The comparable performance indicated the possibility of RuPC as an infill material of CFHS and RuPCFHS as a structural component.

During the past two decades, geopolymer concrete has been investigated as a sustainable alternative to Portland cement concrete, which is known to generate a huge amount of CO2 in the environment. This study focuses on the assessment of the fresh and hardened mechanical properties and durability of metakaolin (MK)-based geopolymer rubberized concrete. Crumb rubber was derived from discarded waste tires, another pollution source to the environment, and incorporated in concrete as fine aggregate replacement in ratios from 10 to 50% by volume. The performance of the MK-based geopolymer rubberized concrete is discussed based on its workability, air content, stress-strain behavior (including compressive strength and modulus of elasticity), flexural strength, dry unit weight and rapid chloride penetrability. The results show that the proposed sustainable concrete mixes achieve acceptable fresh and hardened mechanical and durability properties. The compressive strength when crumb rubber replaces fine aggregates in volumetric percentages between 10 and 40% are in the range of 28.7-39.7 MPa. Furthermore, the unit weight and modulus of elasticity of the MK-based geopolymer rubberized concrete mix with 40% rubber replacement are 14.9 GPa and 2134 kg/m3, respectively. This can promote a potentially large market for the MK-based geopolymer rubberized concrete products in applications where the priority is for decreasing self-weight and increasing flexibility rather than strength.

This experimental study aimed to use the ultrasonic pulse velocity method (UPV) in order to investigate the effect of rubber tire waste content and transducers’ diameters and frequencies on the evolution of ultrasonic velocities in time and to elucidate the correlations between UPV and the properties of various concrete mixtures. The incorporation of this waste involved volume substitution (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) of fine aggregates (sand) by rubber waste (RW) granulates. The dry unit weight, porosity, compressive and flexural strengths, and velocity of ultrasonic waves with different transducers - which presents the non-destructive technique - were evaluated. Rubberized concrete mixtures showed increases in porosity with lower dry unit weight compared to the control concrete. Compressive strength, flexural strength and ultrasonic velocity obtained by all transducers decreases with increasing RW content. These decreases are not influenced by the curing age of concretes. Decreases in the diameter and frequency of transducers caused reductions in ultrasonic velocity. These reductions are not influenced by the volume replacement of sand by RW. Correlations showed that ultrasonic velocity represents a reliable non-destructive technique for measuring the properties of rubberized concretes.
