Abstract:
In this study, fine rubber was partially substituted with fine aggregates from 0% to 30% in multiples of 10%. The properties of concrete like compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength and modelling in ANSYS was performed and the outcomes were investigated. The results showed that there was slight increase in the flexural and tensile strength of the specimens containing 10% fine rubber when compared to the control mix. Workability of concrete mix decreases with increase in the rubber content. The analytical result from ANSYS was obtained by the outcomes obtained from the experimental investigation and results were verified.
