Key factors affecting distribution and orientation of fibres in steel fibre reinforced concrete and subsequent effects on mechanical properties

Use of fibres to reinforce brittle materials for better performance in buildings and for construction purposes has been employed since time immemorial. Inclusion of steel fibres in concrete therefore, has always improved the post-cracking strength and concrete ductility to a large extent. Neverthele...
