AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON POLYPROPYPLENE FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE WITH M30 & M40 MIX DESIGN
Keywords:
Polypropylene fiber, Compressive strength, Flexural strength, Split Tensile Strength.Abstract
In this experimental study to effort using polypropylene fibre with different mix proportion of fusion ratio to
form the fusion reinforced concrete. Polypropylene fibers have transformed properties and these properties will
increases the flexural strength, split tensile strength, compressive strength of concrete. By this strength parameter also
increases. In this effort has been approved for M30 and M40 grade concrete according to IS 10262:2009 with five
various proportions are added with concrete ingredient. The proportion of polypropylene fiber is varying with different
fusion fiber amount varies from i.e. 0%0.5%, 1.0 %, 1.5% 2.0%. Polypropylene fiber is added by the weight of cement.
These tests were done to analyze the hardened properties of concrete for 7& 28 days curing specimens. Investigation of
strength parameter on different tests is evaluated and results are tabulated. From experimental study and results it can
be notify that the sample of added polypropylene fiber1% & 1.5%determined better results.
