Creep and drying shrinkage performance of concrete composite comprising waste polypropylene carpet fibres and palm oil fuel ash

Creep and drying shrinkage are two critical time-dependent properties of concrete. This study presents the outcomes of an investigational work that addresses one-year creep and drying shrinkage performance in addition to the strength development of concrete comprising waste polypropylene carpet fibr...

description Creep and drying shrinkage are two critical time-dependent properties of concrete. This study presents the outcomes of an investigational work that addresses one-year creep and drying shrinkage performance in addition to the strength development of concrete comprising waste polypropylene carpet fibre and palm oil fuel ash (POFA).
