Abstract

Abstract: Fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) has gained considerable attention in the construction industry due to its enhanced mechanical properties and durability. In recent years, researchers have explored innovative methods to optimize the strength and sustainability of FRC by incorporating waste materials, particularly plastic bottles. This review paper critically examines the latest advancements, methodologies, and outcomes in the utilization of waste plastic bottles to enhance the strength of fibre reinforced concrete. Various parameters such as fibre type, aspect ratio, dosage, and curing conditions are analysed to understand their impact on the mechanical properties of FRC. Additionally, the environmental implications and economic feasibility of incorporating waste plastic bottles in FRC production are discussed. The findings of this review aim to provide insights for researchers, engineers, and policymakers in promoting sustainable practices in the construction industry
