“…Attempts to find new methods of soil reinforcement and reduction of economic and administrative costs, as well as to reduce the environmental degradation by materials, have attracted the attention of researchers to the use of new recycled materials, such as the waste tire-derived materials. Due to its low specific gravity, high strength and compression, these materials have many applications in geotechnical projects such as reinforcing soft soil in road construction (e.g., Khabiri et al, 2016;Naval et al, 2014;Keskin and Laman, 2014), controlling soil erosion (Poh and Broms, 1995), as aggregates in leach beds of landfills (Kaushik et al, 2016) and lightweight material for backfilling in retaining structures (O'Shaughnessy and Garga, 2000;Lee et al, 1999;Bosscher et al, 1997;Assadollahi et al, 2016). Another important application of waste tires in combination with soil, which has recently been of great interest, is their use as lightweight materials in retaining walls and conduct the experiments.…”

Today, the use of waste tires mixed with soil has been expanded in various geotechnical projects to absorb and reduce the vibration caused by seismic and dynamic loads. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the dynamic properties of such mixtures prior to practical applications. To this reason, 1-g shaking table tests were carried out, and the effects of important parameter like loading frequency on the dynamic behavior of mixtures were investigated. Tire powders were added to the sand with 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % in gravimetric basis and with a relative density of zero were subjected to sinusoidal loading at frequencies of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9 Hz and input acceleration of 0.1 g and 0.3 g. The results showed that in all cases, the increase in frequency in the same cycles increased the shear modulus and the damping ratio. Also, with increasing shear strain, the shear modulus of the mixture decreased, but the damping ratio increased. On the other hand, by increasing the tire powder, the value of the shear modulus is reduced, but the amount of damping ratio is increased.
