Abstract:
This analysis study is done by using different types of fibres such as steel, glass and polypropylene with aspect ratio varying from 20 to 120 for steel, 600 to 860 for glass and 30 to 100 for polypropylene fibres.The total fibre percentages of 0 to 2% for steel, 0 to 2% for glass and 0 to 2.5% for polypropylene with variation of 0.25%.The design mix varying from M20 to M60 with water cement ratio 0.3 to 0.55 for steel, 0.16 to 0.55 for glass and 0.46 for polypropylene.After being cured under the standard conditions for age of 28 days the specimens of each mixture were tested to determine the corresponding flexural strength. The parameters such as grade of concrete, aspect ratio, volume fraction and tensile strength of fibre for steel, glass and polypropylene fibres respectively, while the flexural strength of the concrete were chosen as output variable. The results obtained from the model and the experiments were compared by using regression analysis, and it was check in artificial neural networks. Finally form an empirical relation between flexural strength tograde of concrete, aspect ratio, volume fraction and tensile strength of fibre for steel, glass and polypropylene fibres.
