To reduce the carbon footprint of traditional concrete materials, natural fiber concrete is vital.
This study systematically analyzed 196 peer-reviewed papers using the literature review …

Concrete composites used in civil and military infrastructure are susceptible to catastrophic
failure under intense sudden blasts or explosions. These types of infrastructure must …

The coconut fiber (CF) has the benefit of highest toughness among natural fibers. The
abundant availability and low cost make it more convenient for its use in concrete …

Sustainable development involves the usage of alternative sustainable materials in order to
sustain the excessive depletion of natural resources. Plant fibers, as a “green” material, are …

Freeze-thaw is one of the major hazards, which concrete pavements have to experience due
to fluctuation in sessional temperatures. Certain measures should be made at the time of …

Climate change cause extreme weather effects with temperature increases and drops in
humidity, such as drought and heatwaves, which will lead to more evaporation in arid and …

The abundant availability of natural fibres around the globe seeks researchers' attention on
their potential use as construction materials. There is a need to explore the structural …

Vegetable fibers are increasingly used in composites because of their good mechanical
properties and low carbon footprint; composites made with vegetable fibers are considered …

As a green and clean product, plant fiber has become a hot spot in the research of concrete.
However, the weak interfacial properties of plant fibers with cement matrix restricted the …

Over the past decade, bamboo has received much attention due to its sustainability and
strength. The advantages of bamboo over other natural fibres include its abundant …
