The present study focuses on evaluating the optimal mix-design parameters of waste PET-
fiber reinforced concrete (PFRC), aiming to enhance its fracture toughness. This study is …

Plastics have become an irreplaceable part of our daily lives due to their usefulness, low
weight, and durability. Population growth and urbanization result in excessive usage of …

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) or fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC), one of the
representatives of cementitious composites, has ultra-high compressive strength and high …

The structural behaviour of fly ash integrated ferrochrome slag aggregate concrete (FCSAC)
is not widely understood owing to lack of research, although some studies have focused on …

The effects of hybrid recycled powder (HRP) from composite concrete and brick waste as
well as recycled polyethylene terephthalate fiber (RPETF) on the performance of mortar …

The rise of natural FRPs as ecological alternatives to synthetic ones has highlighted the
need for studies on partial confinement using cotton ropes, which offer cost-effective, low …

Rubber aggregate recycled from waste tires are added to self-compacting concrete to
improve some of its properties, such as durability, toughness, and concrete resistance to …

The production of plastic material continues to increase around the world. Consequently,
large amount of waste plastic is generated. This will lead to environmental concern due to its …

Using supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in concrete improves mechanical
behavior and decreases the environmental pollution resulting from cement as a generator of …

The high cost of production is a major hindrance to the wider use of ultra-high performance
concrete (UHPC). Recently, the authors' group has proposed to replace expensive steel …
