Evaluation of concrete blocks reinforced with bamboo fibers treated with NaOH

This paper presents the research of the influence of chemical treatment with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) applied on bamboo fibers, to be used as concrete blocks reinforcement. The objective is to analyze the influence of the fibers on the mechanical properties of the cement composite. The research metho...
