Augmentation of Mechanical Properties of Sisal Fiber Concrete

International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2018
The properties of sisal fiber concrete were examined in this investigation. To find out the mechanical properties such as  compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength was carried out for the control concretes. The similar mix proportion which was utilized to cast control concrete was used to cast sisal fiber concrete were considered and ...
