Abstract

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation carried out to study the effect of acidic water on fibre reinforced concrete. The acidic water was prepared by using concentrated Hydrochloric acid in deionised water. The Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) samples were cured in normal water and acidic water for 56 days. The concrete samples were studied for Compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength. The untreated & treated polyester fibre was added 0%, 0.20%, 0.25% & 0.30% by weight of cement in M25 grade of concrete. A comparison has been done between normal water curing and acidic curing of fibre reinforced concrete
