Effect of binder strengthening using micro-silica on mechanical and absorption characteristics of HPC reinforced with reclaimed jute fibres

The incorporation of dispersed fibres in the binder matrix is proven to be beneficial to the tensile performance of high-performance concrete (HPC). However, the insertion of new/virgin fibres in the ‘concrete matrix’ significantly adds to the final cost and embodied carbon of HPC. Therefore, the en...
