Importance Of Fibres

Advantages and benefits of Fibres in concrete: -
Types Of Fibres
There are two methods to categorize fibres as per their modulus of elasticity
and origin. Within the case of modulus of elasticity of fibres are often
classified in two ways: a higher modulus of elasticity than a concrete mixture
(called hard intrusion) and those with a lower modulus of elasticity than the
concrete mixture (Called soft intrusion) Steel, carbon, glass, Polypropylene
has a higher modulus of elasticity than the cement mortar matrix. Plant fibres
has a low elastic modulus. High elasticity fibres can be improved, It has both
bending strength and impact strength, but low elastic firer the impact strength
is improved, but bending strength is not. Metallic fibres such as carbon steel,
stainless steel, steel, fiberglass and asbestos, Organic fibres fall into three
categories based on their origin of course Synthetic fibres and natural fibres
are two types of organic fibres. Plant or sisal hemp fibre, Wood fibre, leaf
fibre, animal fibre, etc. are two types of natural fibres. Hair fibres and fibres
such as silk. Cellulose and Protein fibres and synthetic fibres are
Polypropylene and nylon, are into two basic categories.
GLASS FIBERS
IV
Glass fibre is formed when thin strands of silica-based or other formulation
glass is extruded into many fibres with small diameters suitable for textile
processing. The technique of heating and drawing glass into fine fibres has
been known for millennia, and was practiced in Egypt and Venice. Before the
recent use of these fibres for textile applications, all glass fibre had been
manufactured as staple (that is, clusters of short lengths of fibre).
Glass fibre is formed when thin strands of silica-based or other formulation

• Highly durable
• Requires very low maintenance
• Installation is quick and cost effective
• Weather and fire resistant
• Economical
• Energy efficient
2. Save environment
There is no excavation of natural resources & less transportation.
Less land is required.
Less emission of carbon due to less crushing
3. Save time
There is no waiting for material availability

that the compressive, flexural and tensile strength is coming highest at 56 days
on 0.3% of glass fibres.
• Avinash Gornale, S Ibrahim Quadri, S Mehmood Quadri, Syed Md Akram
Ali, Syed Shamsuddin Hussaini conducted test as objective to know the strength
aspects of glass fibre reinforced concrete in year 2012 and results were
Compressive Strength Test, Flexural Strength Test, Split Tensile strength Test is
done for 3,7,28 days for 0.03% of Glass Fibre in M20, M3, M40 Grade of
concrete and found that the compressive, flexural and split tensile strength is
coming highest at 28 days in all the grades.
• Hanson and Torben (1986) stated that since 1945, the research on recycled
aggregate had been carried out in many countries. Some of the literature reviews
on recycled aggregate are shown as below.
• The applications of recycled aggregate in the construction area are very
wide. There are many testings based on the recycled aggregate have been
carried out all around the world.
