Abstract
- This article shows the results of the modulus of rupture test for concrete specimens added with PET fibers and also with polypropylene, with the objective of giving a second use to this waste through recycling, and its incorporation into concrete to improve its mechanical properties. The samples were tested with different fiber contents, and the results showed an increase in the modulus of rupture at 90 days with respect to a normal sample (1-3%). Specimens with PET and polypropylene fibers had a poor performance (
