Laboratory Investigation on Modified Concrete Mix Design by Partially Replacing Cement with Nylon and Jute Fibres

Surya Pratap Singh Raghuwanshi, Sandeep K. Shrivastava

Abstract


In this thesis, commercially available synthetic fibers namely, nylon, and jute fiber are used to study. The compressive strength tests were performed by changing fiber weight content from 0% to 1.0% of the cement weight content.
