Variations in Mechanical Properties of Concrete with Recycled Aggregates and Jute Fiber: a Review

EasyChair Preprint 9505

Abstract

This paper aims to review the changes in mechanical properties of various concrete composites made from recycled aggregates and reinforced with jute fibers. Various testing methods were used to investigate these composites. The mechanism of mechanical testing, using state-of-the-art equipment to simplify apparatus developed by various researchers on prototypes and at full scale, is presented. A brief overview of the parameters used in these methods is also provided. The properties of jute fibers and their performance in enhancing the mechanical strength of concrete are highlighted, and conclusions are drawn to gain a better understanding of the effectiveness of these modifications against loadings. The results of these methods are in terms of predicting the actual behavior of jute fiber concrete for real-world applications.
