Fiber Reinforced Concrete can be defined as a composite material consisting of mixtures of cement, mortar or concrete and discontinuous, discrete, uniformly dispersed suitable fibers. Continuous meshes, woven fabrics and long wires or rods are not considered to be discrete fibers.
Fiber is a small piece of reinforcing material possessing certain characteristics properties. They can be circular or flat. The fiber is often described by a convenient parameter called aspect ratio. The aspect ratio of the fiber is the ratio of its length to its di ....etc

What is a Fiber…?
Small piece of reinforcing material
possessing certain characteristic
properties.
Can be circular or flat.
Parameter used to describe fiber –
“Aspect ratio”.
Aspect ratio is ratio of its length to its
diameter.
Typical aspect ratio for fibers ranges from
30 to 150.
Concrete (FRC)?
Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is concrete
containing fibrous material which increases its
structural integrity.
It contains short discrete fibers that are uniformly
dist ....etc

The high cost of conventional building materials is a major factor affecting housing delivery in world. This has necessitated research into alternative materials of construction. The project paper aims at analyzing flexural and compressive strength characteristics of concrete produced using crushed, granular coconut as substitutes for conventional coarse aggregate with partial replacement using M30 grade concrete. Beams are casted, tested and their physical an ....etc

I m Surya doing my final year in civil engineering. I have chosen to work on fiber reinforced Geo polymer concrete for my final year BE project. I would like to know the tests to be performed to assess the properties , instruments required and feasibility of the project. I'd be much obliged if someone could help me.

ARE NATURAL FIBER COMPOSITES ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR TO GLASS FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITES?
INTRODUCTION:-
• Natural fibers have been used to reinforce materials for
over 3,000 years.
• Many types of natural fibers have been investigated for
use in plastics .including , Flax, hemp, jute, straw,
wood fiber, rice husks,wheat,barley,oats .
• Natural fibers have the advantage that they are
renewable resources and have marketing appeal.
• Natural fibers are increasingly used in automotive a ....etc
