Fiber

Concrete Fibers play a crucial role in enhancing the performance and durability of tunnel shotcrete and tunnel linings. Macro Fibers are used to increase the post cracking residual strength of …

Concrete tends to develop cracks due to factors such as shrinkage, temperature changes, or external loads. Glass fibers help control the formation and propagation of cracks by distributing stress more …

Explosive spalling refers to a phenomenon that occurs in concrete structures due to  rapid heating and release of moisture within the concrete. Concrete is a porous material that can contain …

Cracks in concrete can occur due to various reasons such as chemical reactions in construction materials, shrinkage, foundation movements, corrosion, climate, environmental stresses etc. To reduce cracks in concrete, glass …

Concrete is an integral part of any construction and infrastructure projects due to its durability. Even though concrete is durable, being brittle when subjected to tensile stress, cracks occur. The …

Polypropylene reinforcement is a common method of strengthening soil. The aim of the present study is to understand the behavior of randomly distributed discrete polypropylene reinforced cohesive soil subjected to …

Fiber reinforced polymer is a composite material that consists of thermosetting resins and fiberglass. The resin brings environmental and chemical resistance to the product and is the binder for the …

Fiber reinforcement is an established method for strengthening soil. The present work examines the influence of discrete coir and polypropylene fiber reinforcement (separately) on compressibility parameters of two types of …

SFRC is a composite material having fibres characterized by a significant residual tensile strength to absorb strain energy due to fiber bridging mechanisms. It is mainly used for improving long-term …

Concrete is an integral part of any construction project, whether you are building roads, tall structures, irrigation canals, reservoir dams, tunnels, industrial floorings, precast segments etc. This is because concrete …
