Shear Resistance of Tire-Derived Aggregate Using Large-Scale Direct Shear TestsSource: Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering:;2015:;Volume ( 027 ):;issue: 001DOI: 10.1061/(ASCE)MT.1943-5533.0001007Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a large-scale direct shear testing of tire-derived aggregate (TDA) of large sizes (25–75 mm). The objective of this research is to obtain and compare the shear resistances of large-sized TDA and TDA in contact with sand, concrete, and geosynthetics. TDAs are pieces of processed and shredded waste tires that can be used as lightweight and quick fills for embankments, subgrades, and retaining walls. A large-scale direct shear apparatus was designed and constructed. The shear box dimensions were 79 cm wide, 80 cm long, and 122 cm tall. The lower shear box was driven by a hydraulic piston, while the upper shear box remained stationary. The horizontal shear forces, shear displacements, and vertical forces were recorded by an automatic data acquisition system. Three normal loads were applied on the TDA to simulate overburden pressures of 24, 48, and 96 kPa (or 500, 1,000, and
