New material combines recycled concrete aggregate and rubber in a mix precisely optimised to meet road engineering safety standards
Tyres and Rubble for Sustainable Roads
Australian researchers at RMIT University have shown how a blend of old tyres and building rubble could be used as a sustainable road-making material, in a zero-waste solution to boost recycling and support the circular economy.
Construction, renovation and demolition account for about half the waste produced annually worldwide, while around 1 billion scrap tyres are generated globally each year.
The new material, develop...
