reclaimed glass fibers will be further explored to develop high strength fiber reinforced acrylic concrete_x000D_
(HSFRAC) bath tubs. The manufacturing of HSFRAC material would include investigating the performance of_x000D_
different material combinations, (i) fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) alone; (ii) acrylic + FRC combination for_x000D_
manufacturing of Green bathtubs. Such bathtubs which are produced using waste and recyclable material_x000D_
would significantly contribute to Zero Waste policy; lower CO2 emissions associated with cement production;_x000D_
and reduce landfills. Thus provide an environmentally friendly solution to a chronic issue, while being_x000D_
