Comparison Study of Conventional Concrete and Fibre Reinforced Concrete

Pradeep Kumar M, Dr. S. Sundari

Abstract


Conventional concrete has certain limitations. Conventional concrete are low tensile strength and brittle failure. To prevent such conditions, fibre reinforced concrete has been introduced. The experimental Investigation Explored several properties, the Significant change is found for Compressive strength when compared to conventional concrete.
