Fibre-Reinforced Geopolymer Composites

Concrete is brittle and has low tensile and flexural strength and strain capacity. Fibres make it ductile or quasi- ductile with improved tensile and flexural strength, strain capacity, toughness and energy absorption. The binder in fibre- reinforced cement composites (FRCCs) is mainly Portland ceme...
