Dissertation note: Project Paper (Bachelors of Civil Engineering) -- Universiti Malaysia Pahang – 2017 Abstract: All forms of consumed rubber tire become waste because several tons of wastes rubber tire cannot be fully recycled at once. The same problem arise on the disposal of used palm kernel shells (PKS) which cause pollution towards the process of waste management. Hence, the application of crumb rubber (CR) and PKS in lightweight concrete provides further opportunity to recycle waste tires and make use of the abundant shells available. Sixty six cube specimens and three slab specimens were prepared in this study to investigate the performance of concrete properties with PKS and CR as partial replacement of coarse aggregate. The different amount of PKS and CR include 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% of replacement by volume. Test conducted on the cube specimens include concrete density test and compressive strength test, while for slab specimens were flexural test. The higher the replacement level of these waste materials, the lower the concrete density as well as the compressive strength obtained. From the result indicated on flexural test, the percentage value of 10% of kernel shell and crumb rubber was the optimum amount of replacement as the compressive strength obtained was higher and the flxural behaviour was closed to control concrete.

All forms of consumed rubber tire become waste because several tons of wastes rubber tire cannot be fully recycled at once. The same problem arise on the disposal of used palm kernel shells (PKS) which cause pollution towards the process of waste management. Hence, the application of crumb rubber (CR) and PKS in lightweight concrete provides further opportunity to recycle waste tires and make use of the abundant shells available. Sixty six cube specimens and three slab specimens were prepared in this study to investigate the performance of concrete properties with PKS and CR as partial replacement of coarse aggregate. The different amount of PKS and CR include 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% of replacement by volume. Test conducted on the cube specimens include concrete density test and compressive strength test, while for slab specimens were flexural test. The higher the replacement level of these waste materials, the lower the concrete density as well as the compressive strength obtained. From the result indicated on flexural test, the percentage value of 10% of kernel shell and crumb rubber was the optimum amount of replacement as the compressive strength obtained was higher and the flxural behaviour was closed to control concrete.
