Compared to toxic disposal methods that leave a trail of environmental issues, using scrap rubber tyres as a partial aggregate replacement in materials such as bitumen and concrete will address the heightening environmental effects. The usage of crumb rubber as partial fine aggregate replacement in Engineered Cementitious Concrete (ECC) is a sprouting new technique under many critiques and scientific analysis. This study encompasses a comprehensive investigation of the crumb rubber incorporated ECC in terms of its compressive strength, flexural strength, direct tensile strength, and deflection abilities by adding crumb rubber content as a replacement of fine aggregate, Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and superplasticizers. Various mix designs were calculated by inputting the values into a Research Surface Methodology (RSM) to obtain a model for the optimal crumb rubber and PVA volumes to verify reliability. The results from the study revealed that crumb rubber reduced the compressive strength of the concrete, increased the flexural and tensile behaviour, shrinkage content, possessed a low modulus of elasticity, and high value of the Poisson's ratio. Finally, the relationship between independent factors and dependent responses were evaluated using ANOVA analysis and the models were found to be significant. © 2020 The Author(s) date: 2020 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85085734315&doi=10.1016%2fj.cscm.2020.e00385&partnerID=40&md5=afb39312637713362b43f7b78baa4a59 id_number: 10.1016/j.cscm.2020.e00385 full_text_status: none publication: Case Studies in Construction Materials volume: 13 refereed: TRUE issn: 22145095 citation: Alaloul, W.S. and Musarat, M.A. and A Tayeh, B. and Sivalingam, S. and Rosli, M.F.B. and Haruna, S. and Khan, M.I.
