Abstract |
|
This project deals with study of strength of polymer concrete by using manufactured sand. These studies involved high strength concrete HSC, were highly dependent on the quality of ingredient– materials. The objectives of this study were to reduce the production cost, time required and to improve HSC properties by providing control mixes and using Orthophthalic polyester resin as partial cement replacement. This was done by experimentally investigating the HSC production using 8%, 10% and 12% replacement of cement by Orthophthalic polyester resin and selecting the optimum replacement content. Orthophthalic polyester resin additions further improved the workability. The concrete specimens were subjected to different tests such as compressive strength test, flexure strength test. |
