Sommario:
- <p><em><span>Self-Compacting concrete is a type of concrete, which is not a product of mixing substances having different properties but a combination of several mix shaving the same flow characteristics. This project presents a comparative study between conventional concrete and self-compacting fibre-reinforced concrete (SCFRC) incorporating sisal fibres. Concrete produced with Portland cement exhibits specific mechanical properties: it has high compressive strength but relatively low tensile strength. This deficiency in tension can be addressed using traditional steel reinforcement and, to some extent, by incorporating an adequate quantity of fibres. Fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) is a composite material composed of a cementitious matrix with uniformly distributed fibres, which may include steel, nylon, polyethylene, or other materials. The self-compacting nature of the concrete improves its performance in the fresh state, while the inclusion of fibres enhances its mechanical properties in the hardened state. In this study, a hybrid combination of banana and sisal fibres is used. Fibres employed in FRC may be derived from natural sources or manufactured materials such as glass, steel, carbon, or polymers. The fibres used for FRC can be natural material or artificial fibre such as glass, steel, carbon and polymer. Self-compacting concrete offers several technical benefits as well as economic benefits, the use of fibres extends possibilities.</span></em></p> <p><em><span> </span></em></p>
