Collision behaviours of rubberized concrete
Rubberized concrete is recommended for highway barriers. It was observed that rubberized concrete's acquired competency to absorb energy resulted in a decrease in damages and injuries during the collision of vehicles with barriers. In this study, normal concrete was combined with two different sizes of rubber aggregate in order to examine the behaviours of rubberized concretes under collision impact. This was done through the comparison of experimental results. The collision impacts were researched as a dynamic problem, and the static results pertaining to cylindrical samples were converted into dynamic values. The values obtained were compared with values for both normal concrete and steel. The results showed that the impact resistance of rubberized concrete was higher, and it was particularly evident in concrete samples aggregated with thick rubber.
