Fiber-reinforced concrete overlays are an incredibly effective means of extending the service life of a floor while maintaining operational continuity.
According to the American Concrete Institute CT-18, fiber-reinforced concrete is a concrete mixture that is reinforced with dispersed, randomly orientated fibers. These fibers can be used in lieu of ...
Furnace tests were conducted on large-scale loaded and restrained reinforced concrete tunnel slabs to evaluate the level of fire damage. Extreme fire events in tunnels may have catastrophic ...
A corrosion-free composite rebar-reinforced floor slab, based on a lab-tested glass fiber-reinforced polymer rebar-specific punching shear equation, which performs like a steel-reinforced slab at a ...
As the demand for more sustainable construction grows and raw material shortages like steel continue to be a challenge, fiber-reinforced concrete has become an increasingly popular choice for flatwork ...
When project teams debate the relative merits of steel and concrete building frames, design quality is seldom the only criterion. Construction time and cost are usually paramount considerations. The ...
