Abstract

Concrete is most widely used construction material. It is a major part of development in all countries especially in a developing country like India. Concrete plays very important role in the infrastructural development, concrete possess a very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking. The abundant availability of raw materials, excellent strength and durability, low manufacturing and maintenance cost, versatility in forming various shapes and unlimited structural application in combination with steel reinforcement has made the concrete a common construction material. The growth and advancement in concrete technology has made the construction to reach at high level with superior construction techniques and methodologies. The present review paper mainly focuses on research papers carried in the field of fibre reinforced concrete, which includes experimentation studies, strength and durability properties, effect on fibres etc. The latest developments in fibre reinforced concrete have been emphasized in the present review paper. The literature papers collected are mostly concentrated on the review of published papers after 2010. The paper represents a complete collection of the studies carried out in the field of fibre reinforced composites. The review article would give an updated material for the researchers in the field of fibre reinforced concrete. Thus helps them to carry out the research related to fibres, fibre composite etc, and can furnish in their studies and help them to arrive at feasible outcomes.
