| dc.description.abstract | Concrete is a durable construction materials which is widely used in construction and civil engineering works. Most countries around the world already device ways of recycling wastes products to replace and conserve natural resources used in producing concrete. This paper provides the performance of glass rubber concrete subjected to abrasion resistance and chemical resistance. The durability of concrete was assessed effectively by determining its abrasion resistance and chemical resistance. Cement, water, fine sand, gravel, crushed glass of 4.75mm and shredded tyre of 19mm were used as partial replacement in the composition of mix ratio of 1:2:4 with 0.50 water/cement ratio. 0% was the control and partial replacement was 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by volume before using the aggregates to produce grade 25 concrete in (100x100x100) mm cube mould and was cured for 28 days. Physical and chemical properties, slump test, abrasion resistance and chemical resistance tests were carried out. Results show that slump decreases with increase in crushed glass and shredded tyre. 5% partial replacement has good abrasion resistance after 28 days of curing and 5% partial replacement produced high resistance to chemical resistance with 26.69 N/mm2. Therefore, glass rubcrete shows potential for becoming an additional sustainable solution for waste recycling. | |
