Abstract

Although concrete is frequently used in construction, it can yield with poor energy absorption and sudden failure.One promising solution to these problems has been the application of short discrete fibers.Sisal is an affordable, easily obtainable, renewable natural fiber.Because of its low cost, low density, high specific strength, high modulus, little health risk, ease of accessibility in some states, and renewability, SSF is a viable reinforcement material for use in concrete.Finding new applications for SSF-reinforced concrete, which is typically used to manufacture ropes, mats, carpets, and other decorative objects, has become increasingly important in recent centuries.An overview of recent developments in SSF and composites is provided in this article.Examined have been the characteristics of SSF, the interaction between SSF and Conventional concrete attributes like freshness, mechanical strength, and durability.The findings demonstrate that SSF reduced flowability while increasing strength and durability.Conventional concrete Description of Specimen CC The specimen description for Sisal Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is S-2.0, and its compressive strength is 38.75 N/mm³.The maximum compressive strength is 43.75 N/mm^, and after 28 days, there is a 46.59% increase in strength.Conventional concrete Description of Specimen CC The specimen description for Sisal Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is S-2.0, and its split tensile strength is 38.75 N/mm².The maximum split tensile strength is 6.67 N/mm², and after 28 days, the strength increases by 46.59%.
