Influence of Textile Fiber in the Mechanical Characteristic of Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Concrete

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
The early growth of micro-cracks develops due to plastic and dry shrinkage weakens conventional concrete’s mechanical properties; which can be improved by introducing discrete and randomly oriented natural and synthetic textile fibers, like sisal, banana,

Properties of Slag-Fly Ash Blended Geopolymer Concrete Reinforced with Hybrid Glass Fibers

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Geopolymer concrete is typically characterized by a brittle behavior and limited crack resistance. This study evaluates the performance of ambient-cured slag-fly ash blended geopolymer concrete reinforced with glass fibers. Two types of glass fibers were
