Sprayed glass fiber reinforced polymers in shear strengthening and enhancement of impact resistance of reinforced concrete beams
In spite of the brittleness of concrete, it is a widely used material in construction. In Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC), short and randomly distributed fibers abate the nucleation and growth of matrix cracks and bridge them after their creation. This reduces brittleness, and provides sources of...
