Abstract: Due to the construction method used, the use of conventional rebar is impractical for roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavement applications, and the use of discrete fibers seems to be the best alternative to this problem. ...

Abstract: The effects of fiber volume fraction and matrix properties on the mechanical performance of 15-mm thick short cut PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) fiber-reinforced cementitious composites were investigated experimentally. Fiber ...

Abstract: Individual and synergistic effects of microsilica (MS) and nanosilica (NS) on the bond properties between moderate–high strength concrete and plain–ribbed steel rebar were investigated. Two different concrete series with ...
