A REVIEW :POLYMER INDUCED CONCRETE

Abstract

The rapid industrialization and urbanization across the country has led to increase in infrastructural developments. This has caused several problems like shortage of materials, increase in waste productivity etc. Plastic is one such waste product which has caused severe damage to ecosystems. Plastic is non degradable material due to which it can be introduced in concrete as replacement of traditional constituents of concrete. Polymer induced concrete is a composite material which comprises of cement based matrix with an ordered or random distribution of Polymer fiber.Thisstudy of usingPolymer Fiber in form of waste plastic can be used in concrete as a partially substitute ingredient.Concrete Mix design is aprimary need inCivil Engineering.Hence this review focusses on Polymer induced Concrete Mix Designin which plastic polymer is replaced as a substitute ingredient in concrete to study the strengthparametersofthe final product
