Comparative Study Of Concrete Properties Using Fiber Reinforced Polymer

Abstract

Concrete, a building material with low tensile strength and tensile strain, is most frequently utilized to produce structural elements with or without reinforcement. The insertion of fibers is typically one way to increase the concrete's strength characteristics, including its flexural, tensile, impact, abrasion, load-bearing, tough, and deformation capabilities. Concrete, a building material with low tensile strength and tensile strain, is most frequently utilized to produce structural elements with or without reinforcement. Adding fibres is typically one way to increase the concrete's strength characteristics, such its flexural strength, toughness, and abrasion resistance, load bearing capacity, tensile strength, impact strength, and deformation capability. The effectiveness of basalt fibers in concrete has been the subject of very few studies. Consequently, a more thorough investigation into BFRC is needed. Characterization of the basalt fibers and the mechanical characteristics of BFRC with various volume fractions will be presented in this work.
