An Experiment on Concrete Made from Human Hair and Banana

Abstract

Due to their high tensile and compressive properties, these banana fibers have been utilized extensively to strengthen concrete structures. Natural fibers are less expensive, better for the environment, biodegradable, and non-biodegradable. Other than the banana fiber and human hair filaments, substantial designing highlights are improved, exceptionally the compressive strength, the elasticity and adaptable power. The first time we found studies on this project, we knew that future research would focus on long-term performance to raise the cost of an efficient fiber for construction applications. In this venture work banana fiber and hair fiber is treated with 5% of NaoH answer for 60 minutes. Then it is washed with refined water. The banana fibers are lengthened by 4 millimeters, whereas the hair fibers range from 6 millimeters to 50 millimeters, and the fibers are dried for one hour at 104 degrees Celsius. Then add 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% of the M20 grade's concrete volume. The homogenous combination of cement was appreciated for the compressive strength of cement.
