Analysis Effects of Concrete Reinforced Plaintain Fiber For Construction Application
Concrete has remained one of the most adaptable and widely used materials for constructions. This investigation looks at the use of banana stone fiber (BSF) as an eco-friendly enhancement material in polymer cement composites. The fibers which are derived from the banana pseudo stem possess remarkable mechanical characteristics such as high tensile strength and flexibility, hence can be used in improving concrete performance. Literature is surveyed discussing the effects of BSF on the flexural strength, crack resistance, and permeability of reinforced concrete. The findings show that appropriate fiber content improves the structural and durability properties of concrete, underlining its promise as a green substitute for traditional materials.
