Abstract

It is a recent advancement in the construction technology, since it is light in weight, therefore bringing economy in the construction. Steel is replaced by the glass fibre helps in avoiding structural deterioration and corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. Keeping in mind about the global environmental conditions, many alternatives are searched to increase the strength, durability, shrinkage characteristics and serviceability of concrete. Hence, here glass fibre is added and tests have been performed with varying percentage of 1%, 2% and 3% of cement by adding as an admixture.
