“…The experiment was carried out using 600 levels of strain at a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius. The load applied in the study referenced in [13] was a sinusoidal waveform with a repeating frequency of 10 Hz, continuously and without any interruptions. Three samples were tested for the evaluation of FPB.…”

“…The matrix is comprised of a combination of polymers and fillers, which serve to enhance the properties of the resin while simultaneously reducing the overall cost of production. The process of reinforcing serves to enhance the mechanical strength of the fibers, while the matrix acts as a protective barrier against mechanical stresses [13]. An efficient road network facilitates the seamless transportation of various services from their origin to their destination.…”

Pavements fail due to many factors, including traffic loading, environmental factors, and material degradation. Among these factors, fatigue cracking and rutting play a predominant role in the failure of roads. Specifically, pavements consider only two parameters: fatigue cracking and rutting, which are 20% and 20 mm thick, respectively. Fatigue cracks are formed at the bottom of the bituminous pavement layers due to tensile stresses. To improve the fatigue resistance of the pavements, this study introduced sisal fibre in bituminous mixes, where different fibre lengths 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, and 17.5 mm were used, which were added to a calculated weight with varying percentages of 0.06, 0.12, 0.18, 0.24, and 0.30 of the total weight of aggregate. Finally, comparing the results significantly improved fatigue resistance and Marshall parameters. The study concluded that the stability of fibres, which were 10 mm in length and made up 0.6% of the sample, reached its lowest point at 12.80 KN when these fibres were mixed with 5.74% Optimum Binder Content (OBC) and 0.30% fibres measuring 17.5 mm in length.

“…Analyses were done using the design of the mix and IS 10262:2009 to determine the amount of concrete that would be necessary for constructing testing specimens using various proportions of the mix. Cubes, cylinders, and prisms are the cast specimens [13][14][15][16][17][18]. The amount of substitution components to be utilised in concrete was assessed based on the total weight of the traditional components utilized for concrete making.…”

The study focuses on the conservation of natural resources by replacing three vital construction materials: (i) Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with Marble Dust (MD) (ii) Fine Aggregate (FA) with tile in powdered form and (iii) aggregate with tile chips (TC) for the building construction works. In this present study, the abovementioned materials were used in 10, 20, and 30% as a replacement. As per the current scenario, only limited research papers are available that show what happens when the components are used as individual substitutions for the materials. Due to the lack of supporting evidence for material substitutions in concrete construction, the philosophy of experimenting with the use of mixtures of substitute materials in concrete has emerged. Experiments were conducted with M25 grade concrete, and the best mixes, M24 and M32, are mixes that replace all three traditional components of concrete, achieving strengths of 31.11, 2.76, and 8.0 N/mm2 in compression, 33.33, and 2.76, and 8.25 N/mm2 in flexure, respectively.
