Experimental investigation on AR glass fiber reinforced concrete with silica fume

The world is emerging rapidly due to the construction of buildings for commercial and residential. The usage of concrete leads to a shortage of natural resources. Silica fume is added as an admixture to partial replacement of cement with 0, 5, 7.5 and 12.5%. AR glass fibers are used to increase the...

Description
Summary:The world is emerging rapidly due to the construction of buildings for commercial and residential. The usage of concrete leads to a shortage of natural resources. Silica fume is added as an admixture to partial replacement of cement with 0, 5, 7.5 and 12.5%. AR glass fibers are used to increase the mechanical properties of concrete. The test results were obtained with reference to compressive and split tensile strength at 28, 56 and 90 days. A constant percentage of 0.03% of glass fibers is added to the concrete. The UPV test was conducted on 28 days to evaluate the strength properties.
