Abstract
This research paper describes the properties of electromagnetism of concrete mix that are sustained to make “Electrically Conductive Concrete”. Thus, the values provide various information on the behaviour of concrete mix and its relation with electromagnetic waves. Steel Fiber and Graphite are conductive materials. The properties of conductive concrete mix that is coarse aggregates, sand and cement can be measured. In the physical significance, the data calculated in X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electronic Microscope was discussed. The contact between the Steel Fiber and graphite is improved to make electrically conductive concrete. The strength is gained continuously till 3% where the maximum strength is gained which is 9.77% higher than the strength achieved by controlled sample. The control sample achieved 26.60MPa, with addition of 1% steel fibers the concrete achieved 29.40MPa, further increase in steel fiber content to 2% gained higher strength of 30.50MPa. The maximum compressive strength of 31.50MPa was achieved with the addition of 3% steel fibers. Further increase in steel fiber content resulted in decrease in strength, though 4% steel fiber reinforced concrete achieved 30.70MPaKeywords
