Abstract
A comprehensive set of experimental data were generated regarding the effects of collated fibrillated polypropylene fibers at relatively low volume fractions (below 0.3%) on the compressive, flexural and impact properties of concrete materials with different binder compositions. Statistical analysis of results produced reliable conclusions on the mechanical properties of polypropylene fiber reinforced, concrete and also on the interaction of fibers and pozzolanic admixtures in deciding these properties. Polypropylene fibers were observed to have no statistically significant effects on compressive or flexural strength of concrete, while flexural toughness and impact resistance showed an increase in the presence of polypropylene fibers. Positive interactions were also detected between fibers and pozzolans.
