30 years of rubberized concrete investigations (1990-2020). A bibliometric analysis

This work presents a bibliometric study of the literature on the use of caucho in the construction to promote the interest of using rubber as a prime material to reduce pollution at a global level. Published papers in the period 1999-2020 in both databases, Scopus and Web of Science (WoS), are taken into account using the Methodi Ordinatio and the VOSviewer software. A total of 967 documents on the use of rubber in structural and non-structural concrete have been published in this period and 1182 authors have contributed on the subject. Since 2010, the interest of researchers in introducing rubber in construction has increased. China, USA and Australia are the countries with the greatest interest in investigating about rubber-concrete.
