Experimental Investigation on Effect of Natural Fibre on the Properties of Fibre Reinforced Bituminous Concrete : A Review

Authors(3) :-Nikhil Chourasiya, Nadish Pandey, Rajesh Joshi

Transport is a key infrastructure of a country. Further, the country’s economic status depends on how well the country is served by its road, railways, airports and ports. The growth rate of the country is closely connected to its development in the transport sector. Among the four major modes of transportation (viz. roadways, railways, waterways and airways), road provides maximum service. Road transportation has the maximum flexibility for travel with reference to route, direction, time, speed and mode of the vehicle. The road transport has become a wider choice among all the transport systems in India, keeping in view of its level of penetration in to the populated area and its cost effectiveness. Road transport is a critical infrastructure for the economic development of a country. It influences the pace, structure and pattern of development. Road transport also acts as a feeder service to railways, shipping and air traffic; hence a better and planned network of roads is necessary throughout the country. In this study we are reviewing the literatures related to utilization of natural fibers in bitumen.
