Effects of Waste Polypropylene Fibers on the Mechanical Behavior of Fiber Reinforced Concrete An Experimental Study

Concerning, the amount of industrial waste is increasing, which has led to issues with environmental sustainability and earth surface ecology. The production of fibres contributes to global warming by releasing carbon dioxide and other harmful substances into the atmosphere. It also manages waste produced during production and field use. Consequently, incorporating industrial waste in the concretes formulation can help to mitigate ecological and environmental problems. In this present study, cement concrete was given an extra material of fibre waste polypropylene fibre . To boost the concretes compressive and split tensile strengths, polypropylene fibre PPF , a synthetic hydrocarbon polymer, has been used. As part of this experiment, we produced a range of specimens utilising various polypropylene waste concentrations, including 0 , 0.25 , 0.5 , 0.75 , and 1.00 . Pankaj Tiwari | R. S.
