Abstract
Experimental study on flexible concrete by using polyurethane fiber
Highlights
Concrete is a mixture of cement, coarse aggregates and that sets after mixing with water in proportion at certain chemical reaction
Asphalt concrete is used for pavement surfaces, where bitumen is used as cementitious material
The elasticity of conventional concrete is generally constant at low stress levels but as the stress level increases it starts decreasing as micro cracking develop
Summary
Concrete is a mixture of cement, coarse aggregates and that sets after mixing with water in proportion at certain chemical reaction. The elasticity of conventional concrete is generally constant at low stress levels but as the stress level increases it starts decreasing as micro cracking develop. The structures made from conventional concrete develops crack at, due to shrinkage , tensile stress and creep.CC is very rigid and has much lower in strain of about 0.1%. This fiber has high bonding property with cementitious material It has high abrasive nature, zero water absorption, highly elastic property. This fiber is widely used in civil engineering constructions such as pavements, building members in seismic prone area.
