Fracture Processes in Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete: Influence of fibre and matrix relationship on the fracture processes

Cementitious materials are brittle and have an inherent weakness in resisting in tension. Fibre reinforcement is an effective mean of enhancing the fracture characteristics of concrete. An increase in fibre volume concentration can have an adverse effect on the tensile performance of a SFRC when ver...
