Abstract |
|
In this thesis, commercially available synthetic fibers namely, nylon, coconut and steel fiber are used to study the effects of fiber used for reinforcing concrete mixes and to obtain basic strength. The compressive strength tests were performed by changing fiber weight content from 0% to 1.25% of the cement weight content. As a result, it was found that the use of nylon fiber considerably increases the tensile strength as the fiber content is increased. |
