Tire as construction material
House from tires
Per year around 300 million waste tires are generated only in U.S. We have really good luck that businesses of this scrap tires are increasing and they are used in construction. From this use recycling and reuse rate increases.Building with tires is the best funda.to use tires as construction material and make green building.
Due to their design they works as thermal resistance material. They don’t allow any heat exchange with atmosphere.
These tires are filled with normally earth and placed. After that voids between two tires are filled with rammed earth. We need 1000 tires for 2000 sq foot house generally. Sometimes another recycled materials are poured in voids like bottles, aluminum.
During construction
Tire-Bale Construction
To use tires like above mentioned tires are used like a brick of 100 compacted tire, which decreases the labour cost and gives more beautiful plaster.
They are stacked like oversize bricks to frame the outside walls of the home.
After the walls of rammed-earth and tire-bale walls are smoothed with earth, they are finished with layers of plaster or stucco.
Is tier house is fire resistance? This may be the automatic assumption that the houses made of tires, which are highly flammable, could pose a serious fire hazard. Because the windows are sealed in thick walls, which are not interacting with oxygen. Providing a layer of plaster covering the tires are also additional fire resistance. Buildings meet and often exceed the requirements of the fire.
