If you're still using the same concrete your grandparents used, now's the time to get into the future of construction. The world of concrete technology has evolved dramatically, and you might be missing out on some of the most significant advancements in the industry. Imagine a world in which structures can heal themselves, 3D-printed buildings
Polymers and fibers are the main components of cementitious composite materials to reinforce concrete. The synthetic fibers used in concrete composites typically weigh and also, and they are easily subjected to thermal degradation. To tackle the above issues, researchers developed various natural fiber-based composites. In the paper, the mechanical characteristics of hybrid composites were examined. The hybrid composites were developed using Madar, Gongura, and Hibiscus cannabinus fibers. The polyester resin was the matrix. The fibers were treated chemically using a 5% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) ...
The article discusses the various types of nanomaterials incorporated in RAC blends and the effect on essential properties of recycled concrete aggregate.
