| Popis: | In tension, concrete is often weaker than in compression. To increased the tensile strength of concrete, fibers are added. Nylon fibers (NF) have shown promising results in previous research and tests since their presence has shown significant increases in concrete performance. The purpose of this research is to gather data from previous studies on NF-reinforced concrete (FRC). The key components of this review include concrete flowability, compressive strength, tensile strength, impact strength, rehabilitation, performance during irradiation, and fire resistance. In addition, the article examines the fracture behavior and failure patterns of nylon FRC. The results show that NF enhanced concrete performance, notably tensile capacity, owing to bridging mechanisms, but lowered concrete flow properties. However, the some researcher demonstrates that NF does not improved the compressive capacity significantly. Therefore, the study proposes more research to increase the compressive capacity of concrete by applying alternative treatments to NF or by employing secondary cementitious materials. |
