| Abstract: This work investigates some properties of chopped worn-out tires concrete (Ch.W.T.conc.). It is a type of concrete characterized by the incorporating of Ch.W.T into the mixes as a partial replacement of volume of aggregate (sand and gravel of equal proportion). Three mixes of Ch.W.T conc. In addition to the reference mixes were selected, using Partial Replacement Ratio (PRR)of 30%, 40%, and 50%.The tests which were used in this study were: compressive strength, modulus of elasticity (static and dynamic), and impact resistance (low and high velocity). It was found that incorporating Ch.W.T in concrete effect on the properties of concrete, for example the percentage decreases in compressive strength were 41%, 46.7%, and 52.4% for concrete with 30, 40, and 50% Ch.W.T. PRR by volume of aggregate (50% sand, 50% gravel) respectively. However, it gave good indicator to be utilized as a new construction material in many applications. | ||
