Análisis de la resistencia residual a la flexo-tracción en hormigones que incluyen fibras plásticas de polietileno recicladas y fibras comerciales

Abstract

When reinforced concrete beams are subjected to moments and forces, shear failure can occur before the maximum flexural strength is achieved. This type of error occurs suddenly. To prevent shear failure of reinforced concrete beams, the beams are reinforced with stirrups. The search for innovative solutions is crucial in a context in which the construction industry must commit to sustainability and waste management. Plastic and commercial bottle fiber has aroused great interest due to the ease of recycling of the materials and its commercialization, which has led to the search for methods to improve the strength properties of concrete, by incorporating them into the mixture of Specifically, the objective is to improve the physical and mechanical properties. With this present investigation, it seeks to determine the improvement of residual strength by incorporating recycled and commercial bottle fiber.
