Glass Fibre Reinforce Concrete

All of us know that the traditional concrete possess very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking. So in this paper we focuses towards the experimental research of the mechanical properties of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GRFC) with conventional concrete. Fibers while delivered in certain percentage in the concrete improve the property as crack resistance, ductility, as flexural strength and durability. So for improving the durability of the structure we are use glass fiber. Glass-fibre reinforced concrete (GRFC) is a fabric product of a cementatious matrix composed of cement, sand, water and admixtures, where in brief duration of glass fibers are dispersed. It has been widely used within the creation enterprise for non-structural factors, like façade panels, piping and channels. GRFC gives many advantages, inclusive of being lightweight, heat resistance, appropriate look and strength. For this experimental work we are used glass fibers on the volume fractions of 0.5%, 1% and 1.5%. After the casting of cubes, beams and cylinder with the above mentioned quantity fractions we can carry out specific test which include compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength respectively. After the completion of this work we compare the results of glass fiber strengthened concrete with that of the traditional concrete. From camparing those two we are able to see that how the addition of the fibers will have an effect on the mechanical properties of conventional concrete and we check that the addition of fibers improves the strength of concrete or not.
