Influence of Plantain Pseudostem Fibres and Lime on the Properties of Cement Mortar
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 This study investigated the properties of cement mortar with lime reinforced with plantain pseudostem fibres. Experimental specimens with 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1% fibre contents by weight of sand and 10% lime content by weight of cement were prepared ...
