Fiber-reinforced cement composites

Abstract

Historical developments mechanics of fibers basic concepts of mechanical properties - tension, bending constitutive materials mixture proportions - mixing and casting procedures properties of freshly mixed FRC properties of hardened FRC compression, tension and flexure FRC under impact and fatigue loading creep, shrinkage and long-term performance of FRC plastic drying shrinkage fiber-reinforced shotcrete glass fiber reinforced cement (GFRF) thin sheet products slurry infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON) use of FRC in structural components field performance and case studies.
