In the present investigation, 26 groups of soil samples were prepared at five different percentages of crumb rubber content, four different percentages of cement content and two different finenesses of crumb rubber particle. Compressive strength tests were carried out at the curing age of 7 days, 14 days, 28 days and 90 days. The test results indicated that the inclusion of crumb rubber within cement soil leads to a decrease in the compressive strength and stiffness and improves the cement soil’s brittle behaviour to a more ductile one. A reduction of up to 31% in the compressive strength happened in the 20% crumb content group. The compressive strength increases with the increase in the cement content. And the enlargement of cement content is more efficient at low cement content.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Wpływ granulowanych odpadów gumowych na wytrzymałość na ściskanie gruntu stabilizowanego cementem}, title={Effects of crumb rubber on compressive strength of cement-treated soil}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/84049/mainfile.pdf}, keywords={odzysk odpadów, granulowane odpady gumowe, wytrzymałość na ściskanie, plastyczność, czas utwardzania, refuse reclamation, crumb rubber, compressive strength, plasticity, curing age}, }
