The study aims to improve the thermal resistance of concrete by using natural fibre. In general, in Gulf countries, the solar heat is too high during the summer season, causing indoor heat in buildings. To combat this, air conditioners are used frequently, which is harmful to the environment and human health. Although there are many materials available to prevent heat at present, this study looked at how to effectively reduce heat indoors by using natural materials. This date palm fibre is a natural material that is widely available in the Gulf region, and it can be used to protect people from solar heat. The primary goal of the research is to determine the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of concrete with various percentage of date palm fibre. The study discovered that when 0.2% date palm fibre is added to the concrete dosage, to have high thermal resistance and it was proved by the experimental study. Date palm fibre is added in concrete at 0% to 3% with a interval of 0.2%. (DPFRC) Date palm fibre reinforced concrete has excellent thermal resistance and compressive strength from test results. It will boost green energy technology in construction industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
