Using Wasted Rubber Material for Reducing Loads and Energy Dispersal in Building Industries: State of the Art

The accumulation of rubber tires poses a great danger to the environment, especially since the number of cars is constantly increasing. Therefore, at the beginning work was done to recycle these tires and use them as an alternative to the natural aggregate used in concrete. It was also used in asphalt used in roads. Packaging for the Shear Connecter used in composite section. As this work gave excellent results in reducing the hardness of the shaker contactor, increasing its durability and resistance, and also preserving it from corrosion by rust. Waste rubber was also used to covering the bolts used to connect the beam with the column in steel structures. Where the presence of rubber gave a high ability to dissipate energy when the steel structure is subjected to a seismic load. It also worked to increase the displacement and increase the durability of the steel structure and also reduce the friction between the bolts and their holes. The presence of rubber around the bolt also delayed the failure time of the steel structure and thus the important aim of the research work has been achieved, which is to maintain the safety of people when the structure is exposed to an earthquake load.
