Download PDFPlain concrete possess very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking. Internal micro cracks are inherently present in concrete and its poor tensile strength is due to propagation of such micro cracks. To increase the tensile strength some of the materials will be added. We are using the material iron ore and admixture like glass fibres as a replacement of fine aggregate in different proportions in the concrete to improve the physical and chemical properties like density, compressive strength, tensile strength and strain properties as well as crack resistance, ductility as flexure strength and toughness. This iron ore is locally available material that leaving in environment can cause the environment problem. So, revising the waste has be stressed. The waste product can be used as replacement of ingredients as well as admixtures by using the waste products the impact of waste on the environment is minimized.
