Review on Metakaolin Based Fibre Concrete

Civil Engineering

Cement concrete is the most widely used material for various constructions. Properly designed and prepared concrete results in good strength and durable properties. Even such well-designed and prepared cement concrete mixes under controlled conditions also have certain limitations because of which above properties of concrete are found to be inadequate for special situation and for certain special structures. The main ingredient in the conventional concrete is Portland cement. The amount of cement production emits approximately equal amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Cement production is consuming significant amount of natural resources. To overcome the above ill effects, the advent of newer materials and construction techniques and in this drive, admixture has taken newer things with various administers has become a necessity.
