Civil Engineering ApplicationsCivil Engineering Applications
� Defined as the use of scrap tires, usually shredded, in lieu of conventional construction materials
� Substitute for gravel, sand, light-weight fill materials
� Today referred to as tire-derived aggregate (TDA)

Why Use Tire Shreds?Why Use Tire Shreds?
�� Light weight and low earth pressure are very Light weight and low earth pressure are very beneficial where there is poor soil structure beneficial where there is poor soil structure � Weak foundation soils
� Increase slope stability
� Reduce settlement
� Landslide stabilization
� Tire shreds can improve engineering performance
� Tire shreds are often the least cost alternative

Committee Direction
� Purpose: Promote the use of ground rubber
made from scrap tires
� Focusing on three activities to enhance
market growth:
� Educate producers and potential users
� Identify barriers and solutions
� Support activities that would overcome
barriers and implement solutions
![Page 25: Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Conservation Challenge (RCC) by Mark Schuknecht ...

Ground Rubber Definition
� Ground rubber (also known as “crumb rubber”)
� Defined by ASTM
� Various sizes of ground rubber
� Coarse Rubber: 1 inch to 4 mesh
� Ground Rubber: 10 to 80 mesh
� Fine Grind Rubber: 80 to 400 mesh
![Page 26: Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Conservation Challenge (RCC) by Mark Schuknecht ... Denise Kennedy, DK Enterprises Todd Marvel, Illinois EPA Pam Moore, North Carolina, Div of](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030505/5ab2da887f8b9a00728d8a66/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Ground Rubber Processing
� It takes a lot more effort, machinery and skill to make good quality ground rubber than it does to make TDF or TDA
� There are two major processing technologies:
� Ambient grinding by mechanical teeth
� Cryogenic grinding by freezing & crushing
![Page 27: Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Conservation Challenge (RCC) by Mark Schuknecht ...

30
Mulch
� Rubber mulch is used as longer-lasting alternative to bark and other natural mulches to keep out weeds and/or help retain soil moisture
� It is often used around plants, backyard pools, foundations and other objects
![Page 31: Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Conservation Challenge (RCC) by Mark Schuknecht ...

31
Molded Products
� Plastic, virgin rubber, urethane or other binders are combined with ground rubber to mold parts
� Large compression molded objects such as tiles and signpost holders
� Injection molding can yield a wider variety of more technical parts such as automobile parts
� Ground rubber can be made into sheet goods to make things like floor mats

Purpose of the committee:
Tire Derived Fuel Committee
To support the expanded and
appropriate use of scrap tires as
supplemental energy resource in
properly permitted industrial
facilities

Disposal of scrap tires in tire piles is not an acceptable management practice because of the risks posed by tire fires, and because tire piles can provide habitats for disease vectors such as mosquitoes.

Tire Derived Fuel Committee
In 2007, more than 303 million scrap tires were generated in the U.S. Nearly 107 million of these tires were recycled into new products and 164 million were reused as tire-derived fuel (TDF) in various industrial facilities.
![Page 43: Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Conservation Challenge (RCC) by Mark Schuknecht ... Denise Kennedy, DK Enterprises Todd Marvel, Illinois EPA Pam Moore, North Carolina, Div of](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030505/5ab2da887f8b9a00728d8a66/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

TDF is one of several viable alternatives to divert newly generated scrap tires from disposal in tire piles, and to reduce existing tire piles.
