This research investigates the potential for optimizing the strength of fibre-reinforced concrete by incorporating waste plastic bottles as a sustainable additive. The study aims to explore the feasibility of utilizing waste materials to enhance the mechanical properties of concrete while promoting environmental sustainability through recycling efforts. Various proportions of waste plastic bottles are incorporated into the concrete mix, and the resulting mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and impact resistance, are evaluated through rigorous testing procedures. The findings of this study contribute to advancing sustainable construction practices by providing insights into the effectiveness of waste plastic bottles as a reinforcing agent in concrete. Additionally, the research highlights the importance of recycling initiatives in the construction industry and underscores the potential for utilizing waste materials to improve concrete performance while reducing environmental impact.
