An Experimental Investigation of Polyethylene Terephthalate Fibers in the Properties of Concrete
Abstract: In India near about every year 45 million tons of solid waste is generated. The solid waste rate is increasing of 1.5 to 2% every year. In that total solid waste, Plastics contains 12.3% waste generated in which most common are the water bottles. Now the present worldwide situation, the production of PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) exceeds 6.9 million tons per year. So that it is necessary to reusing of PET …
