Natural fibres are preferred compared to synthetic fibres because of several advantages such as biodegradable, lightweight, low cost and good mechanical properties.
Tensile properties of roselle fibre were performed to study the tensile properties.
Other advantages include low cost, good mechanical properties, abundantly available, material renewability, biodegradability and abrasive in nature for ease of recycling[1]–[3].
Several significant mechanical properties can be obtained from tensile test such as Young’s modulus, tensile stress, maximum elongation, tensile strain and yield stress.
Increased concentration of NaOH solution affects the tensile properties of roselle fibre.

In addition, there are no other factors to classify the type of fibres or any information about the group of fibres that are used in concrete.

The voids due to the effect of conversion do affect the mechanical properties of concrete.
The factors affect the bond between the deformed bar and concrete are chemical adhesion, friction forces and mechanical anchorage of the ribs against the concrete surface.
These factors may be implicated in three major subject headings: structural characteristics, bar properties, and concrete properties.
