Abstract

The physico-mechanical properties of concrete reinforced with macro- and micro polypropylene fibers for road slabs were studied. The effect of low-modulus synthetic fibers on strength, density, water resistance, and frost resistance were determined. Macro fibers increase compressive and flexural strength, while microfibers improve structure, reduce porosity, and enhance frost resistance. Combined reinforcement with micro-silica increases flexural strength by up to 35%, frost resistance up to F375, and water impermeability up to W14. The use of multidimensional fibers and micro-silica is recommended to improve concrete properties.
