Abstract |
|
Modern activities lead to use of plastic bags in excess. Disposal of plastic is one of the major problems faced in the present era of the world. Plastic begin non-biodegradable material. It takes years to decompose. The non-biodegradability of plastic makes it very harmful to the environment. In this work, partial replacement of fine aggregate is replaced by the plastic (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%) in M30 grade of concrete containing steel fibers .The steel fibers were added at 0.5%,1%,1.5% by volume of concrete and optimum percentage is determined and that optimum percentage was used in replacement of fine aggregate . The compressive and split tensile strength are determined after 7 days and 28 days of water curing. |
