Abstract
The objective of this work is to develop a suitable method to recycle stubs and roots (SR) as components for wood-urethane resin composites. SR are waste materials that were dug up from soil during construction works. Attempts were made to produce wooden aggregates and polyurethane (PU) resins as binder from the SR and to prepare specimens of wood-urethane resin composite tiles from the recycled materials. Results of physical evaluations by bending and permeability tests as well as applications of the tiles showed that they can be used as materials for several purposes, e. g. preventing the growth of grass and pavement construction.
