INFLUENCE OF KENAF AND POLYPROPYLENE FIBRES ON MECHANICAL AND DURABILITY PROPERTIES OF FIBRE REINFORCED LIGHTWEIGHT FOAMED CONCRETE
This paper investigates the mechanical and durability properties of lightweight foamed concrete (LFC) with the inclusion of kenaf and polypropylene fibres. A density of 1000kg/m3 foamed concrete was used for all the tested specimens. The ratio of cement, sand and water used was 1:1.5:0.45. Polypropy...
