EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON EFFECTS OF FIBERGLASS AND FIBER WASTE INCONCRETE MIXES
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
In this research concrete mixes were tested to investigate the effect of fiber waste and fiber glass and evaluatethe efficiency on fresh and hardened concrete for trying to produce a concrete with high strength. anexperimental study was carried out to test for compressive strength of concrete for six types of concrete mixeseach mixture were casted in the form of cubes were studied for 7 and 28 days, one of those mentioned mixes isa (control mix). Finally the results are compared with the normal conventional concrete (control mix). The mainaim of this investigation is first to prepare the strength of concrete of compressive strength 25N/mm2 withlocally available ingredient and then to study the effect of different proportion of fiber waste and fiber glass inthe mix and to find the optimum range of the effective proportion. The various proportions considered are 0.1%,0.2%, 0.3%, o.4%, o.5% of fiber glass and fiber waste from mixture weight respectively. the research wasshown that the effect of fiber and fiber waste on the fresh concrete that the workability decreases as theproportion of the fiber waste and fiber glass additives increases, and for the hardened concrete the specificcompressive strength increases up to 0.3% of the fiber waste and fiber glass content of mixture weight, and alsoshow’s beyond these mention proportioned that the compressive strength decreases.
