The rapid development of infrastructure imposes high requirements on the performances of
building materials especially on strength and ductility. The combination of high tensile strain …

This article reviews the literature related to the performance of fiber reinforced concrete
(FRC) in the context of the durability of concrete infrastructures. The durability of a concrete …

Systematical research was implemented to explore the impacts of fiber reinforcement index
V f L f/df (ie, the product of fiber volume V f and fiber aspect ratio L f/df) on the energy …

The superb mechanical performance of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) has led to
its rapid adoption within the industry. In addition to mechanical strength exceeding that of …

The present study investigated the effect of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber content on
flowability, compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength and fracture performance …

This experimental study investigates the direct tensile behavior of ultra-high performance
fiber reinforced concrete (UHP-FRC) at strain rates ranging from 90 to 146/s. The tests are …

Three different types of strain-hardening, cement-based composites (SHCC) as well as their
constitutive cementitious matrices were investigated under uniaxial quasi-static and impact …

This paper investigates for the first time the high-strain rate splitting tension behavior of Fiber-
Reinforced Rubberized Concrete (FRRC). Splitting tension tests were performed on Φ 100 …

The fracture energy of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) at high
strain rates (5–92 s− 1) was investigated, and specimens with 1–1.5% fibers exhibited very …

Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) has drawn extensive attention in recent years for its
superior mechanical response to dynamic and impact loadings. Based on the existing test …
