Rice Husk Ash (RHA) cement concrete and shows evidently polymer concrete using an unsaturated polyester resin based
up to how much percentage the cement can be replaced by on recycled PET, which participates to dropping the cost of
coconut fibers and Rice Husk Ash. the material and saving energy.
Many other references are available on the use of waste Cement concrete mix volume contains from 65–80%
plastic as aggregate, filler or fibre replacement in the aggregate and it plays a significant role in concrete properties

Conclusion

strength of the Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC). mix is recommended for maximum strength.
Because at higher dosage, concrete loses its ability to
make a proper bond.
