Experimental Study of Waste Chicken Feather Fibre in Concrete

This work was carried out to investigate the possibilities of utilizing the natural chicken feather fibres CFF barbs and rachis in concrete at different volume fractions of 0.25 , 0.50 , 0.75 , 1.00 , 1.25 , 1.50 in cement concrete composite for the development of low cost and waste reusable building material in construction industry. CFF were sourced from poultry processing plants to reduce the solid waste problem Feather fibres disposal in open lands under environmental strategies. The various mechanical properties of compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength tests of modified chicken feather fibres concrete have been studied and the results are compared to the conventional concrete.
