The effect on the behaviour of concrete with fiber additive variation of water cement ratio / Azman Omar

Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is today firmly established as construction materials. The present study deals with an investigation on the effects of polypropylene fiber on the properties of concrete with variation of water cement ratio from 0.5 to 0,7. From previous research it shows that, polypro...
