Two set of samples was produced (treated and untreated) and the proportion of the materials was determine using central composite design (design expert). treated ammonia jute fibre concrete blended with ground waste glass, immersed in to 10% sulphuric acid H 2 SO 4 for 28 has shown significant increase in compressive strength, with the best mix recording 16.4% increase compared to the samples produced with untreated jute fibre, the compressive strength of concrete with 1.5% treated jute and 7.5% glass powder as the best proportions.
