The current era sees a significant impact on society, especially individuals concerned with sustainability and environmental well-being due to the utilization of unconventional materials in construction. The present scientific study concentrates on investigating how Textile waste combined with Meta kaolin affects mechanical attributes of polymer concrete. The enhancement of cement concrete pavement with polymer modification has recently captured the attention of those researching new road materials. Indoor testing methods that explore compressive strength, flexural strength, have been employed to investigate this innovative approach. These varying properties were measured using different levels of polymer content in a comprehensive study aimed at improving joint damage and reducing cracks in cement concrete pavements. The study analysed the actions of polymer concrete combined with discarded textiles trimmings. Each trial incorporated reused chopped fibers, representing 1% and 2% of total weight respectively.
