The article follows on previous research by authors dealing with the properties of concrete with the addition of recycled rubber. This paper describes the substitution of aeration additives with rubber recycled material and the effect of this substitution on strength and modulus of elasticity. For concrete mixes containing 40 kg/m 3 of recycled rubber, the air content of the fresh concrete was measured. Concrete with the same amount of fresh air was made using an aeration additive. Compressive strength and modulus of elasticity were compared.
