• Abstract:
  Using ground tire rubber (GTR) in ; concrete mixtures is a possible solution ; to mitigating flexibility and thermal ; expansion issues with high-strength ; concrete pavements. Florida State ; University researchers designed concrete ; mixtures using GTR and then tested ; concrete made with the mixtures. ; The general effects of added GTR on ; workability and mechanical properties of ; concrete were examined. The researchers ; also investigated implementation of GTR ; mixes at ready mix concrete plants.
