About this document
Tensile Strength of Pumpkin Fibres by zaiy is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes an experiment that measured the tensile strength of plant fibers from pumpkin stems and compared it to the tensile strength of concrete. Three pumpkin stem fibers were tested and their diameters, cross-sectional areas, and tensile strengths were calculated. The average tensile strength of the plant fibers was found to be 1.51 × 107 Nm-2, which is higher than the tensile strength of concrete, 2.0 × 106 Nm-2. Therefore, the conclusion is that plant fibers from pumpkin stems are stronge
