Resumen

This study aims to analyze the influence of sugarcane bagasse fiber (SCBF) without treatment on concrete and its impact on carbon footprint production. This review studies the impact of SCBF on the compressive strength, flexural strength, direct tensile strength, and elasticity modulus, considering fiber percentages of 1%, 3%, 5%, and 6%. The results showed that SCBF had a negative influence on concrete because as the percentage of fiber increased, it started to become invasive in the concrete mix and proportionally influenced the strength reduction, obtaining a maximum decrease of 60.96% in the compressive strength. However, the CO2 emissions decreased as the fiber percentage increased, generating maximum emission savings of 17.19%.
