The colossal utilization of materials expands the waste which causes collection in landfill, as well the huge using on structure materials with minimal cost, light weight, high insulation properties with acceptable strength resulted searching for new ecologically friendly materials. Expanded utilization of waste materials, for example crumb rubber etc. one of the different issues which humankind confront as it goes to the 21st century is the issue of waste tire elimination administration. Since materials such as rubber don?t break down effortlessly, elimination of rubber waste is an excruciating environmental trouble. This paper deals with the study of mechanical and physical properties of the concrete mixture containing rubber replace by sand and the mixture containing rubber. Three ratios for rubber are taken 5, 10 and 15 then choose the best proportion of them. Crumb rubber was treated by water soaking method, this method considered economical and effective.
