Abstract

Next to water, concrete is the most ubiquitous construction material worldwide. Due to the rapid depletion of natural resources, innovative substitutes are increasingly being used to boost concrete's strength and durability. Experimental research on the mechanical characteristics of concrete with three different types of fibres added is shown here. In the experiment, M25 concrete was used together with polypropylene fibres, basalt fibres, and steel fibres. Concrete's characteristics were investigated while still wet and after it had solidified. Compared to regular concrete, the results showed that the addition of fibres increased early strength gain by about 62%. When compared to regular concrete, the addition of polypropylene fibres raised the material's compressive strength by 24% and its tensile strength by 22%
