Summary: | Nowadays Malaysia is one of the main natural rubber produce country in the world. Hence the natural rubber can be easily found with cheaper price. It has very useful to developed and extended the usage of natural rubber especially in the construction industries. With appropriate process of technology, it has becomes possible to incorporates natural rubber latex into concrete as the replacement to results the increase the workability and durability of concrete. This study present to attempt the behavior of the stress-strain characteristic, the workability, compressive strength and permeability of the cement-latex concrete. The effects of latex with different percentage will be added to replace the fine aggregates in the plain concrete were investigated and compared to the plain concrete with the same grade. Further studies to be carried out to find the optimum dosage of latex that can gives the optimum advantages of latex concrete. |
