   The deck of the Mihara Bridge, composed of bendable concrete, is only five centimeters thick and has an expected lifetime of one-hundred years. [ 2 ] Though HPFRCCs have been tested extensively in the lab and been employed in a few commercial building projects, further long-term research and real-world application is needed to prove the true ...

   Fibers are added for long term durability of concrete. Glass [14] and polyester [15] decompose in alkaline condition of concrete and various additives and surface treatment of concrete. The High Speed 1 tunnel linings incorporated concrete containing 1 kg/m 3 or more of polypropylene fibers, of diameter 18 & 32 μm, giving the benefits noted ...

6. Gelcoat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelcoat

   Gelcoat or gel coat is a material used to provide a high-quality finish on the visible surface of a fibre-reinforced composite. The most common gelcoats are thermosetting polymers based on epoxy or unsaturated polyester resin chemistry. Gelcoats are modified resins which are applied to moulds in the liquid state.

7. Delamination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delamination

   A variety of materials, including laminate composites [1] and concrete, can fail by delamination. Processing can create layers in materials, such as steel formed by rolling [2] [3] and plastics and metals from 3D printing [4] [5] which can fail from layer separation. Also, surface coatings, such as paints and films, can delaminate from the ...
