The influence of waste polypropylene fibers on the behavior of sustainable reinforced concrete beams
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Plastic waste has recently become one of the most important environmental issues. Plastic fibers in concrete provide a long‐term solution to plastic waste management. Concrete is a rigid material and has superior compressive strength but has poor tensile strength.
