<p>The objective of this study is to assess the impact of incorporating rubber tire waste and brick fillers as a substitute for sand in cement mortar samples. The evaluation includes measurements of the bending strength, dynamic modulus of elasticity, and displacement. The replacement of sand by rubber waste (RW) and brick waste (BW) at 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% for rubber waste and 0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5%, and 10% for brick waste by volume was experimentally conducted. According to the findings, the introduction of rubber waste leads to a significant reduction in the flexural strength, dynamic modulus of elasticity, and displacement. The brick waste can be considered a suitable filler, which minimizes the negative effect of rubber tires and tends to result in suitable mixtures. The optimal values (10.10% for the RW and 10% for the BW) showed good agreement with the experimental results, with differences of 1.85%, -4.73%, and -4.48% for the displacement, flexural strength, and dynamic elastic modulus, respectively.</p>
