Abstract

Several researches have been conducted to find a practical and environmentally sound solution of the problem of scrap tires. In this context, an experimental study was conducted to provide more data on the effect of crumb rubber on the acoustic properties of self-consolidating concrete SCC. To this end, Parallelepiped and cylindrical specimens were prepared by varying the proportion of crumb rubber with percentages of 0 %, 10 %, 20 % and 30 % of the volume of gravel. Properties such standardized level difference, sound absorption at different frequency and noise reduction were investigated. The results showed that the sound absorption and noise reduction coefficient were increased according to the increase of the percentage of crumb rubber. The self-consolidating concrete rubber SCCR has better acoustic properties in comparison with SCC.
