The utilization of waste tire rubber (WTR) in concrete is an environmentally sustainable solution that has garnered significant interest recent years. However, incorporating WTR can lead to a reduction its mechanical properties. This study proposes life-cycle assessment-based method for the simultaneous evaluation environmental and aspects concrete. converts generated impacts into scores defines series scenarios employ pre-coating techniques enhance properties assessment results using proposed reveal that, although significantly reduces strength, it also substantially decrease impacts-by up 75%-compared scenario ordinary combined with landfilling. Although use resin increase increases pollutions, improved lower compared base scenario. To evaluate overall improvement, total improvement coefficient calculated, taking account both compressive strength It observed benefits outweigh drawback reduced strength. reaches 1.7 2.35 when resins 5% micro silica, respectively. were those previous studies demonstrated not only enhances but provides greater benefits. because low-emission materials used strengthening, while high-emission was incorporated concrete, reducing impact.
