Experimental Investigation of Mechanical Properties of AR Glass Fibre Reinforced Self Compacting Concrete
Abstract: The plain cement concrete has brittle in nature and low tensile strength. Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is an efficient choice in construction because of its inherent capacity to fill gaps and flow without the need for external vibration. The necessity of self-compacting concrete can be recognized by seeing the growing issue of a trained labour shortage in the building sector. The advantage of SCC is that it allows for an earlier …

Empowering Concrete: Enhancing Strength and Durability with Coal Bottom Ash
Abstract: The utilization of coal bottom ash, an industrial waste byproduct, as a sustainable alternative to river sand in concrete production has gained increasing attention due to environmental concerns and the need for resource optimization. This study examines how incorporating coal bottom ash into concrete mixtures, either partially or entirely replacing river sands, affects different properties. These properties include the workability of fresh concrete, as well as its compressive strength, splitting …
