Abstract

Concrete, often referred to as man-made rock, consists of cement, aggregates, and water. Recent experimental studies have explored the strength characteristics of concrete by partially replacing fine aggregate with crumb rubber and cement with metakaolin. Concrete cubes were tested for compressive strength at 7 and 28 days, using various percentages of crumb rubber and metakaolin as replacements for fine aggregate and cement, respectively. The aim of the study was to investigate the compressive strength of concrete when metakaolin and fine aggregate were partially replaced with crumb rubber. The findings revealed that the optimum mix included 10% crumb rubber and 10% metakaolin, resulting in the highest compressive strength. This study underscores the potential of incorporating rubber waste into concrete mixes as a partial replacement for fine aggregate, contributing to environmental sustainability by reducing waste and promoting resource efficiency. By optimizing the use of crumb rubber and metakaolin, the concrete industry can enhance the mechanical properties of concrete while addressing environmental concerns.
