- Abstract
The influence of water to binder ratio, rubber pretreated method and dosage to water absorption on the capillary porosity, drying shrinkage and mechanical properties of rubber concrete was studied. The results indicated that the NaOH pretreatment could help improve overall performances of rubber concrete, while its influence is dependent on water to binder ratio of concrete. It is suggested that the improvement of concrete by NaOH pretreatment was enhanced at a higher water to binder ratio.
