Summary: | During the last 20 years the use of paving block is alternative to the more
traditional asphalt replacement or types of road use makadam, and looks much better
than concrete rebates. This research tries to apply the concept of the use of steel fiber
and polyethylene fiber in the composition of building material composed of a
mixture of portland cement, water and fine aggregate for into an established paving
block.
This research uses a slurry mixture ratio of 1PC : 5 PS or (1 Portland cement :
5 Sand). The use of of steel fiber & polyethylene fiber additional material with a
percentage of 0%, 2%, 4%, 6% the reduction in the weight of the sand.
Total of 7 (seven) the percentage variation of the addition of fiber. Research
results paving block is not managed to qualify for 6 (six) examinations in testing
standard paving block according to SNI 03-0691-1996.
