Assessing amid Water absorption and Compressive strength of Hybrid Textile Reinforced Concrete
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) is a material that is acquiring new ground in the construction field. It eliminates the problem of corrosion by using non-corrosive textile fibre mesh materials, helps in manufacturing lightweight structures and reduces CO2 emission. The paper aims to find the Compressive Strength (CS) and Water Absorption (WA) properties of Hybrid interlayer TRC with 3, 4 & 5 layers of hybrid combinations with Aramid and Alkali-Resistant (AR) glass fibre meshes reinforcement compared to identical fibre mesh reinforced TRC and reference mix cementitious matrix composition after 28 and 180 days of water curing. Based on the studies it was found that hybrid TRC improved the CS irrespective of layers by about 2 and 1.2 times when compared to reference mix and identical fibre mesh TRC.
