    Abstract :

    The objective of the study and research is to design polymer modified concrete mix and to trace and analyze the effect of percentage variation of polymer content in concrete mix. The polymer content is varying from 5% to 25%. The influence of polymer modified concrete results in increase of compressive and flexural strengths of road construction. It is also noted that if polymer content percentage is changed in mix design, it directly affects the required quantity of sand, gravels, water and unit cement content.
