Abstract
Experimental results from the study showed that the use of low percentages (up to 0.5%) of waste fibres improved the modulus of rupture and flexural toughness. Based on ultrasonic and electrical resistance test results, an increase in fibre percentage also increased the pore volume and electrical resistance of the fibre reinforced concretes with respect to a control mixture.
