Özet

Processed waste tires can be used as additives for geotechnical applications in earthquake-prone areas. The increasing use of waste tires additives requires a better understanding of their dynamic behaviors. Processed waste tires as granular and fiber-shaped rubber particles under the same experimental conditions have not been studied before. The main purpose of this study is to carry out these experiments to determine the effects of two different processing techniques on the shear modulus and damping ratios of the mixtures. It is also the first time that the effects of fiber-shaped rubber particle inclusions are determined in detail. In addition, the results of similar tests using different processed waste tires were evaluated. The effects of the processed waste tires are given by evaluating the literature and this study together. It has been found that depending on the size, aspect ratio and content of the rubber material, the type of processing can significantly affect the dynamic properties of the mixture. The tested materials may be suitable as base isolation material. Of all the studies evaluated, the highest damping ratio was obtained with granulated rubber inclusions.
