Abstract
The worn out tires of the old vehicles are discarded and replaced. In most parts of the country these tires are burnt causing numerous environmental hazards. These tires are non-biodegradable and hence have to be disposed off carefully. One of the ways to dispose them is to recycle them. They can also be shredded and can replace many construction materials. This paper aims at using crumb rubber (recycled tires) in modifying the bitumen and studying its properties.
