In this research, the enhancement of compressive, tensile and flexural strength of concrete mixtures was explored using both waste white marble instead of aggregate and steel fibers. White marble was mixed with an ordinary Portland cement replacing the mixture of both coarse and fine aggregate by 10%, 50% and 100% of weight. Besides adding the steel fibres to mixture with a total volume of concrete up to 2%. At the age of 28 days of curing, a significant increase of 24.3%, 34.5% and 38.8% was noticed in compressive, tensile and flexural strengths respectively for the replaced aggregate mixtures. Further improvement was gained by adding the steel fiber.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
