dc.description.abstractSalient features of lightweight aggregate concrete (LAC) include noticeable fire resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and low magnitude of dead loads. Further, LAC has a low cost, eases construction practices, and possesses an environment-friendly nature. On the downside, LAC has substandard mechanical properties in comparison to normal aggregate concrete. Natural fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have shown their potential in ameliorating the mechanical properties of natural aggregate concrete. So far, no study has been conducted to assess the efficacy of hemp rope confinement to strengthen lightweight aggregate concrete especially comprising rectilinear sections. This study aimed to overcome the substandard nature of LAC. A low-cost, sustainable, and environmentally green solution in the form of natural hemp rope layers is proposed. Twenty-four square concrete specimens were tested in three groups depending upon the presence and quantity of lightweight aggregates. It was found that concrete constructed with lightweight aggregates demonstrated lower ultimate compressive strength and strain as compared to normal aggregate concrete. Hemp rope-confined LAC showed enhanced ultimate compressive strength and strain. This enhancement was found to increase with the number of hemp rope layers. Several existing ultimate stress models were assessed to predict the ultimate compressive strength of the hemp rope-confined specimens. Only a single model was able to predict the ultimate compressive strength of the hemp rope-confined specimens with reasonable accuracy. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
