2. Fiber-reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_concrete

   Larger steel or synthetic fibers can replace rebar or steel completely in certain situations. Fiber reinforced concrete has all but completely replaced bar in underground construction industry such as tunnel segments where almost all tunnel linings are fiber reinforced in lieu of using rebar.

3. Rebar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebar

   Historically in Europe, rebar is composed of mild steel material with a yield strength of approximately 250 MPa (36 ksi). Modern rebar is composed of high-yield steel, with a yield strength more typically 500 MPa (72.5 ksi). Rebar can be supplied with various grades of ductility.

4. Fiberglass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberglass

   In rod pumping applications, fiberglass rods are often used for their high tensile strength to weight ratio. Fiberglass rods provide an advantage over steel rods because they stretch more elastically (lower Young's modulus) than steel for a given weight, meaning more oil can be lifted from the hydrocarbon reservoir to the surface with each ...

5. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

   The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

6. Reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforced_concrete

   The walls become the form into which concrete is poured. Steel plate construction speeds reinforced concrete construction by cutting out the time-consuming on-site manual steps of tying rebar and building forms. The method results in excellent strength because the steel is on the outside, where tensile forces are often greatest.

7. Glass fiber reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_fiber_reinforced...

   GRC (Glass fibre-reinforced concrete) ceramic consists of high-strength, alkali-resistant glass fibre embedded in a concrete & ceramic matrix. [1] In this form, both fibres and matrix retain their physical and chemical identities, while offering a synergistic combination of properties that cannot be achieved with either of the components acting alone.

8. Fibre-reinforced plastic tanks and vessels - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre-reinforced_plastic...

   This increases the hoop strength, making the tanks anisotropically stronger than steel (pound per pound). FRP which is constructed over the liner provides the structural strength requirements to withstand design conditions such as internal pressure or vacuum , hydrostatic loads, seismic loads (including fluid sloshing), wind loads, regeneration ...

9. Steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

   Steel for rail use: Minimum Yield Case: H: High Tensile Strength Flat products: Minimum Yield Case: If followed by T then the given mechanical property is minimum tensile strength D: Flat Products for Cold Forming: Followed by C, D or X and two numbers characterising steel T: Tinmill Products: Nominal Yield Case: M: Electrical Steel: Number ...
