INFLUENCE OF NATURAL FIBER DERIVED FROM AGRICULTURAL WASTE ON DURABILITY AND MICRO-MORPHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF HIGH-STRENGTH CONCRETE

Influence of Natural Fiber Derived from Agricultural Waste on Durability and Micro-Morphological Analysis of High-Strength Concrete

This research focuses on the investigation of durability behavior and microstructural analysis for M70 grade of high-strength concrete (HSC) with the influence of alccofine, banana fiber (BF), yn rating badge and coir fiber (CF).In this investigation, cement was partly supplanted by 15% of alccofine content in weight.Two types of natural fibers, ba

Mechanical and thermal performance of engineered cementitious composite concrete produced by using polyvinyl alcohol fibers

The inclusion of polyvinyl alcohol fiber (PVA) into an engineered cementitious composite (ECC) material is essential to impart mechanical and thermal properties, in addition to the enhancement of porosity and microstructural properties.Therefore, this improvement can be achieved by utilizing four different percentages of fiber (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2)%, re
