INTEGRATION OF GGBS AND PET FIBRE IN CONCRETE – A REVIEW

PET fiber is a standout amongst the most usually utilized things on the planet and difficult to arrange in earth or land filling spread contamination. Bonding property of pet fiber is good in concrete, so it is very useable product in concrete from ecofriendly point of view. As we seen the cement factories which release very much amount of carbon and pollutants which affect our environment badly. This study describes low amount cement use in concrete and replaced by GGBS which has the same property as cement. In this review study the addition of PET fibre in concrete at different length and width and PET in concrete 0.5%, to 3% ratio mix in concrete. GGBS also replaces the cement at 30%, 40% and 50%. According IS code various mix design is used for this type of mix, mainly 43, 53 grade of cement were used as most of research. Cubes, beams and cylinder examined for 7, 28 and 56 days to the mechanical property of concrete in which compression test, split tensile test and flexural test were shown at hard concrete and compaction checked at fresh concrete. As we saw the various literature results, the strength of GGBS and PET fibre concrete decreased as increased in length and percentage of fibre. But PET fibre with GGBS took time to gain strength, but mostly it shows fair results.
