Influence of polypropylene fibers on the ductility of sand concrete

The study of the mechanical behavior of sand concrete mixed with polypropylene (PP) fibers shows that with the incorporation of (PP) fibers into the cementitious matrix, there is some improvement in the ductile behavior of the composite. In our study we tested the composite with different dosages of polypropylene (0.05%, 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.5%).
