Experimental and machine learning-guided optimization of tensile strength of concrete incorporating silica fume, waste foundry sand, and polypropylene fibers

Concrete has inherently low tensile strength, which restricts the performance and durability of a concrete structure. This study investigates the effect of Silica Fume (SF), Waste Foundry Sand (WFS), and Polypropylene Fiber (PPF) on Split Tensile Strength (TS) of M40 grade concre...
