Sumario: Ecuador consumes 2´500.000 tires per year, Therefore, similar amount of wasted tires that have reached their utility cycle. According with state law, producers and importers must recover the thirty percent of their total supply recover thirty percent of their supply, nevertheless the remaining seventy percent causes an environmental problem because suppliers do not find a final disposition of the wasted product. By proposing rubber as raw material confined within the concrete mix it is intended to show an alternative way for minimizing the pollution of discarded tires. This research is focused on determining the incidence of replacing in the concrete mix 4% by weight of the fine aggregate with recycled rubber particles. For this purpose, 4 mixtures were made. The first mixture named as "conventional concrete" with a design of f'c= 24Mpa, the other 3 mixtures were used rubber particles retained in sieves No. 16, No. 30 and No. 50 respectively and based on the dosage of the Mixing "conventional concrete". On average, the compressive strength of the recycled rubber plus recycled concrete was reduced by 24% compared to "conventional concrete". The modulus of bending rupture did not show a significant change.
