This research paper presents a comparative analysis between conventional concrete, concrete incorporating granite powder, and glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC). The study aims to evaluate the mechanical and durability properties of these concrete mixes to assess their suitability for construction applications. The experimental program includes tests such as compressive strength and durability tests like water absorption. The concrete mixes are prepared with varying proportions of granite powder and glass fibres to investigate their effects on the properties of concrete. Results indicate that the incorporation of granite powder improves the compressive strength and durability properties of concrete, attributed to the pozzolanic reaction and filler effect. Additionally, the addition of glass fibres enhances the flexural and tensile strength of concrete due to their reinforcing action. This study provides valuable insights into the potential of using waste materials like granite powder and advanced materials like glass fibres to enhance the performance of concrete, contributing to sustainable and durable construction practices. Further research is recommended to explore optimization techniques and the long-term behavior of these concrete mixes in real-world applications.
