Abstract The Congress of the United States petitioned the Transportation Research Board of the National Academy of Sciences to study replacement passenger car tire rolling resistance in 2005 with funding from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The study was initiated to assess the potential for reduction in replacement tire rolling resistance to yield fuel savings. The time required to realize these savings is less than the time required for automotive and light truck fleet replacement. Congress recognized that other factors besides fuel savings had to be considered if the committee’s advice was to be a reasonable guide for public policy. Therefore, the study simultaneously considered the effect of potential rolling resistance reductions in replacement tires on fuel consumption, wear life, scrap tire generation, traffic safety, and consumer spending for tires and fuel. This paper summarizes the committee’s report issued in 2006. The authors, who were members of the multidisciplinary committee, also provide comments regarding technical difficulties encountered in the committee’s work and ideas for alleviating these difficulties in further studies of this kind. The authors’ comments are clearly differentiated so that these comments will not be confused with findings, conclusions, and recommendations developed by the committee and contained in its final report.

Nowadays, one of the most essential environmental issues around the world is to deal with the scrap tire problem. Tires that are used, rejected or unwanted are classified as scrap tires and need to be managed responsibly. In this paper, the scrap tires were shredded into pieces and used to mix with normal weight concrete. Extensive laboratory tests were carried out and the focus of this paper was to characterize the mechanical and permeability properties of concrete containing scrap tires. The main parameters studied were chipped tire content and size. The results showed that the scrap-tire chips without adding special bonding agents apparently showed an even distribution in the mortar and concrete matrix. The elastic modulus, compressive and tensile strengths of scrap tire concrete in general were found lower than that of the control concrete and the differences became significant when the content and size of chipped tires in the mix were increased. Besides, the coefficients of water permeability of concrete were found to increase with increase of chipped tires in the mix.
