Comparative Study About Mechanical Properties of Strutural Standard Concrete and Concrete with Addition of Vegetable Fibers

Abstract: This paper explored the effect of adding organic fibers from either bamboo or sugarcane on the mechanical properties of concrete. Cylindrical and prismatic specimens were made containing 2% and 5% v/w (volume to weight) of vegetable fibers to concrete. Following 28 days of curing period, the samples were evaluated for compressive strength, tensile strength using diametric compression, tensile strength during bending and static modulus. It was discovered that all concretes produced met the minimum strength of 2… Show more

“…The raw bagasse was dipped in water at 30 • C for 30 min and then dried in the open air. The intent of this process was to reduce the residual sugar content of the bagasse and eliminate impurities [21,[23][24][25][26]. Afterwards, the residues were classified by a sieving process.…”

“…Carla Regina Ferreira et al investigated organic fiber's influence from either sugarcane or bamboo upon the concrete mechanical properties. They concluded that the concrete comprising (2% v/w) of bamboo fibers revealed better mechanical strength and static modulus of elasticity than the concrete without any addition and the concrete with the addition of sugar cane fibers [3]. Ribeiro et al depicted the technical viability of utilizing the sugar cane ash as pozzolanic substantial in the construction, which would substitute appropriate disposal for such waste whereas providing outcomes with the high technical performance [4].…”
