  Impact of Polypropylene Fibres on the Properties of Concrete

  By Neeti Mishra

  Abstract: This review paper explores the effects of polypropylene fibres on the mechanical and structural properties of concrete. The integration of short, discontinuous fibres into plain concrete enhances its post-cracking behavior and overall performance, with notable improvements in tensile strength, fracture strength, toughness, impact resistance, and flexural strength. These fibres effectively control crack propagation, increase energy absorption, and improve durability under varying loading conditions. A comprehensive analysis of prior research highlights …
