Abstract

Cementitious Composite (CC) is the mix of various materials, which in a combination form a composite, which would help in bonding of various components in the structure. It is combination used from ancient times and still used in the construction industry. In this paper, we have tried to modify the mix to get better results for the composite as CC plays a vital role in strength of building. It may be any component, masonry, concrete, etc. presence of CC helps in capacity of building with provision of proper bonding in two elements of the structure in a form of connection. Therefore, it is necessary to have a proper CC for the construction. As usually failure in the structure occurs usually through the CC itself, failure may be in connection, failure in bonding in two elements or structural component, etc. In this paper, we are discussing the results obtained of the prepared Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC), which we found to have higher strength with a Lower Cost and Lower Carbon-Emission as well as higher ductility. This would help in making the structures more durable for the lateral shocks due to seismic loads.
