Abstract:	The research project aims to produce waterproof materials using tyres and cement glue. One method of disposing of domestic waste is to use secondary tyres. The presence of heavy metals in the waste materials used to construct waterproof materials (waste tyre powder, sand, cement, etc.) is of interest as it is an important environmental pollution issue. These materials are cheaper than similar products, simple to produce and stable against microorganisms. They also meet all modern requirements for construction materials. Sample preparation involves mixing the ingredients and then testing them. Typical recipes include a mixture of cement, sand and additives. New recipes are variations of old ones, obtained by changing the ingredients and their mass content. When preparing new samples, we added different percentages of finely dispersed waste tyre powder. This was added at the expense of reducing the quantity of sand. The waste tyre powder was added in quantities of 1%, 3%, and 5%. The standard sample was spread to a size of 24.5/24.5 cm in 1 minute for a self-levelling floor. The best results were obtained with the addition of 5% waste tyre powder. In addition to the waste tyre powder, the mixture contained 1% diethylene glycol monomethyl ether and methyl cellulose at various weight ratios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
