Theses

A new type of Polymer concrete is an admixture of a special Latex, Portland cement and Sand. It has high bond strength, quick curing, durability and adequate strength. The Mechanical and Physical properties were investigated in this paper. Reinforcement with Glassfiber was done and its properties compared to those of control specimens. The heat generation in Polymer Concrete (PC) and its relationship with the properties of PC was also investigated.
