Using recycled concrete and crumb rubber as aggregates to produce green concrete is a promising technology toward sustainability in the construction industry. In this study, the compressive and flexural behaviours of a new type of concrete material, rubber crumb and steel-fibre-reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (RSRAC), are investigated. To popularise the application of this new type of green building material, an experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of the rubber content on the compressive and flexural behaviours of RSRAC. A total of 18 cubes (150 mm) and 18 cylinders (150 mm x 200 mm) were tested under axial compressive loading, and 18 prisms of 150 x 150 x 550 mm were tested subjected to three-point bending. The crumb rubber content was varied in the investigation at levels of 0%, 4%, 8%, 12% and 16% by volume substitution of sand. Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) was introduced into the concrete mixture by 100% volume substitution of natural coarse aggregate (NCA), and 1% volumetric quantity of steel fibre was added to the concrete mixture. The effect of the rubber content on the compressive and flexural strength, failure mode, modulus of elasticity and toughness of RSRAC was analysed. The results indicate that RSRAC with an optimal rubber content displays good compressive behaviour compared with normal NCA concrete. RSRAC is also a more environmentally friendly alternative to normal rubber concrete for use in the flexural members of concrete structures. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
