In last little decade technology being guided by the sustainability and environmental issues. Civil engineering is not exceptional ion this matter. As concrete is deriving from natural resource, a big question is being asked all time what will be the future technology and future path. Last few years researchers tried to incorporate the waste material in concrete especially in cement and in fine aggregate. Waste tyres can be an alternate material to replace mineral aggregate. But the mechanical properties decrease with the increase of tyre rubber. So in present study we replaced 40% cement with fly ash and use 5% extra silica of the weight of cement to enhanced the property of tyre rubber concrete which made by replacing 5% coarse aggregate by chipped rubber. Made beams with the modified concrete and check the ductility factor of both types
