Improving the Reinforcement of Polyolefin Fiber Reinforced Concrete for Infrastructure Applications

The increase in the use of polyolefin fiber-reinforced concrete (PFRC) is in contrast to the limited amount of published research about its fracture behavior. This study assesses the main mechanical and fracture properties of PFRC by using conventional and self-compacting concrete with various dosag...
