4 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CURRENT TRENDS IN TECHNOLOGY, ‘NUiCONE – 2010’ VI. CONCLUSIONS Based on the present experimental study, the following conclusions can be drawn • The Load carrying capacity of concrete is increased by using fibers when compared to conventional concrete. • The workability of concrete is increases as the percentage of fiber content increases up to 2% and decreases up to 6%. • The compressive strength and Split tensile strength of concrete is increased by 12.66 and 22.22% respectively with 3.5% of HDPE fiber in the concrete. • Flexural strength of concrete is increased by 21.81% compared to conventional concrete.
