EUPHORBIA FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE Murimi, S.M. ABSTRACT This paper presents an experimental investigation on Euphorbia fibres as concrete reinforcement. The possibility of improving the mechanical characteristics of concrete through the use of reinforcement plant fibres has provoked in recent years a special interest for this new construction material, especially in those areas where plant fibres can easily be found and consequently have a low price like Kenya. In this study, the influences

Cost estimate for Precast cladding systems Name: Institution: Cost estimate for Precast cladding systems Introduction The precast cladding system is one of the newest building systems in the construction industry in which it has been found to be very economical and flexible. The system came into a large-scale operation in the 1960s where many architects realized its benefits and started using it for a wider scope. It can give an exquisite aggregate finish that is almost the same as cast in the
