Abstract: Numerous studies have demonstrated that adding waste plastic to bituminous mixes improves moisture resistance and anti-stripping properties, which in turn increases pavement durability. Government measures have aided in the success of trial projects, but widespread adoption still faces formidable obstacles. These include financial obstacles related to initial investments and operating expenses, technological constraints in modifying current hot mix plants, and problems......

Abstract: Using fishnet as reinforcement in cement mortar sheets is one possibility. In a preliminary analysis, the mechanical characteristics of mortar with nylon fishnet reinforcement are assessed. Waste nylon fishnet is employed in this study as mortar reinforcement. The compressive strength of mortar has decreased as a result of the addition of nylon fishnet. Also, the adding together of nylon based fishnet enhances several mortar qualities, such as its capacity to support a load. The sheet reinforced with fishnet is cheap and eco-friendly. Even though more research is required, it.....
