Abstract [English]

Admixtures now days play a predominant role in concrete manufacturing. The admixtures ranged from blood in history to fiber reinforcement admixture.  In this paper the author analyzing the properties of concrete using salt water cured and oven dried human hair whose length exceeding 10cm as fiber reinforced admixture is studied and verified by strength of ordinary Portland cement without using any admixture. Using human hair length greater than 10cm as fiber reinforcement admixture gave good percentage of increment in compressive strength and flexural strength, but as the length of the human hair increases used for concrete as fiber reinforcement admixture reduces the strength.
