Abstract

The objective of this research were to compare the split tensile strength and compressive strength of normal concrete and Epoxy Resin as filler in concrete. Specimen were tested for tensile strength and compressive strength after 7 days, 14 days and 28 days of standard curing in order to find out if concrete would show an increase in strength. Mix design used in this research work is based on previous research work. The water-cement ratio, cement, aggregate all content were kept same except epoxy resin.
