Production of Interlocked block with added Tire Rubber Waste

Abstract

Currently, much is being studied about the inappropriate disposal of useless tires, where it causes many health and environmental problems. Therefore, the work aims to develop a research on a very important topic, which is the reuse of tire rubber residue, which will be crushed and replaced by fine aggregate (sand), for the production of interlocking blocks for paving. For this, bibliographic searches, queries on articles and standards will be carried out, where the bodies of evidence will be made, conventional blocks (blocks without the addition of rubber), the other mixtures with rubber residue, the sand will be replaced by the residue in the following percentages 2 , 5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%, and axial compression will be tested at 7, 14 and 28 days of curing. With all this, the resistance of conventional blocks will be compared with blocks with the addition of rubber. And with the test results obtained, check if it meets the standard required by NBR 9781 (ABNT, 2013), for the production of interlocking blocks.
