Feasibility Study of the Effectiveness of Crumb-Rubber Mortar as a Novel Shock-Absorbing Material
This research studied the feasibility of crumb rubber mortar (CRM) as a novel shock-absorbing material for protecting structures from blast and impact loading. Waste tire–derived crumb rubber was used in combination with cement paste material in this investigation. CRM samples with nine different mix proportions were selected for studying the shock-absorbing performance. Cubic specimens with dimensions 200×200×200 mm (7.87×7.87×7.87 in.) were fabricated from each sample. These specimens were evaluated under static compression and impact loading conditions. Test results suggest that CRM with a water content of 96 kg (211.6 lb) and a water/cement (W/C) ratio of 0.3 or 0.4 exhibits excellent shock-absorbing performance. The impact force–displacement curves estimated using a proposed analytical model were found to be consistent with the experimental curves.
