Use of PET Fibre as Constituent of Concrete

Abstract

A fibre reinforced concrete is a mixture having the ingredient cement, sand, aggregate with
PET Fibre. As we know that the fiber can not be decomposed. Development in the
technology of preparing of concrete mix is necessary. So we are using the fibre as constituent
of the concrete The concrete mix which is made with the use of fibre have high cement
quantity and low water quantity The fibre reinforced concrete carry more load as compare to
the plain concrete. The concrete without fibre fail suddenly one the ultimate flexural strength
exceed as compare to the fibre mixed concrete Today we required the cost effective material
which increase the concrete strength . Hence we are trying and doing research by addition of
waste material like fibre. This paper gives the results of various strength of concrete Key
Words: PET Fibres, workability, compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile
strength, bond strength.
