Without civil engineering, the world will lack the skills and experiences in
planning, utilizing, and constructing different materials and equipments that improves
the environment and provide efficient facilities, industries, transportation,
infrastructures, and more.
One of the most relevant topics related to our study is the production of fiber
reinforced concrete (FBC), a concrete containing fibrous material which increases its
structural integrity. FBCs are being developed through the years due to its amazing
performance as compared to ordinary concrete, where it possesses an excellent
flexural, tensile, and compressive strength, resistance to splitting, impact resistance,
permeability, and frost resistance.
6. Describe your research as answers to research questions you have been assigned
to research.
This study will assess the effectiveness between polyethylene waste and
pulverized oyster shell as an additive component in cement by obtaining the said
variables through integrating the additives into the cement with different ratios and
assessing the performance of each specimen through five mechanical properties:
density, workability, compressive strength, tensile strength, and flexural strength.
7. Explain what you will do in your research to test your hypothesis or demonstrate
your model.
8. Summarize the current research based on your specific area or highlight any gaps.
