  • Abstract:
  • Present days the construction activities increased day by day. Concrete technology upgrading has harmed the environment to a greater level. Concrete is one such basic component that has always undergone continuous improvement in order to improve the strength properties by adding various admixtures. The strength of concrete is improved by substituting Alccofine and Metakaolin for cement and adding jute fibres to the mix. Jute fibers are added in concrete to improve strength without any environmental effect. In this experimental investigation 1% of jute fiber added by the volume of concrete. The partial replacement of cement with Metakaolin and Alccofine with percentages of 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, 1.5 respectively. The mechanical properties are determined.
