Abstract:

The paper deals with the effects of addition of various proportions of polypropylene fibers on the properties of concrete. Main objectives of this experimental investigation is to characterize the selected mechanical properties of PPFRC and to study the effect of volume fraction of (PPF). The present dissertation work is carried out with M30 grade concrete with w/c ratio of 0.363. Cement is replaced by 20% of fly ash and 10% of GGBS. Polypropylene fibers are added by 0%, 0.50%, 1.00%, 1.50% & 2.00% of volume fraction. For all mixes compressive, split tensile, flexural tests are carried out and they are compared with conventional concrete.
