This experimental study aims to investigate the properties of sand concrete (SC) by using sisal fibres and latex in various fields in construction. Sisal fibres were applied at four ratios of 0.05%, 0.10%, 0.15% and 0.20%, while liquid latex was replaced with three ratios of 15%, 25% and 35%. In this context, ideal percentages of sisal fibre (0.1% F) and latex (35% L) were combined in a single cement matrix. For each percentage, tests on flow, density, compressive strength, flexural strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, modulus of elasticity, water accessible porosity, water absorption and shrinkage were performed on fresh and hardened SC. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was also conducted for microstructure analysis. Results indicate that adding latex emulsion to SC containing sisal fibres increased the adhesion of the fibres to the cement matrix, which contributed to the increase in flexural strength and the decrease in shrinkage. This condition also helped reduce the porosity and water absorption of latex-modified SC with sisal fibres compared with SC that contained fibres. The improvement occurred in the properties that constitute an obstacle to the widespread use of SC. Thus this improvement has practical implications.

This study investigated the use of latex-modified sand concrete reinforced with sisal fibers (LMSC) as a repair material. Notably, no prior research has explored the application of LMSC for this purpose. This paper examines the interface bond strength and the type of failure between LMSC as a repair material and the normal concrete (NC) substrate utilising four different surfaces: without surface preparation as a reference (SR), hand hammer (HA), sandblasted (SB), and grooved (GR). The bond strength was measured by bi-surface shear, splitting tensile, and pull-off strength tests at 7, 28, and 90 days. Scanning electron microscopy analysis was also performed to study the microstructure of the interface between the normal concrete substrate and the latex-modified sand concrete reinforced with sisal fibers. The results of this study indicate that LMSC has bonding strength with NC, especially for HR and SB surfaces with high roughness. Therefore, substrate NC surface roughness is essential in increasing the bonding strength and adhesion. Eventually, The LMSC has the potential to repair and rehabilitate concrete structures.
