2. Fibre cement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_cement

   The term cement originates from the Latin word caementum, which refers to chopped stone. Cement describes a substance which will react chemically with water and develop into a material as hard as stone. In fibre cement there is a fibre reinforcement, which contributes to making the fibre-cement material even stronger.

3. Fiber cement siding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_cement_siding

   Blue fiber cement siding HardiePanel on design-build addition, Ithaca NY. Fiber cement siding (also known as "fibre cement cladding" in the United Kingdom, "fibro" in Australia, and by the proprietary name "Hardie Plank" in the United States) is a building material used to cover the exterior of a building in both commercial and domestic applications.

4. High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-performance_fiber...

   This occurrence is hindered by the presence of fiber bridging, a property that most HPFRCCs are specifically designed to possess. Fiber bridging is the act of several fibers exerting a force across the width of a crack in an attempt to prevent the crack from developing further. This capability is what gives bendable concrete its ductile properties.

5. Fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_cementit...

   Plant fibers are a promising area but they are subjected to degradation in the alkaline environment and elevated temperatures during cement hydration. [3] [4] In international literature, FRCMs are also called textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), textile reinforced mortars (TRM), fabric-reinforced mortar (FRM), or inorganic matrix-grid composites ...

6. Fiber-reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_concrete

   The following are several international standards for fiber-reinforced concrete: [35] BS EN 14889-1:2006 – Fibres for Concrete. Steel Fibres. Definitions, specifications & conformity; BS EN 14845-1:2007 – Test methods for fibres in concrete; ASTM A820-16 – Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (superseded)

7. Glass fiber reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Glass_fiber_reinforced_concrete

   Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) is a type of fiber-reinforced concrete. The product is also known as glassfibre reinforced concrete or GRC in British English. [1] Glass fiber concretes are mainly used in exterior building façade panels and as architectural precast concrete. Somewhat similar materials are fiber cement siding and cement ...

8. Eternit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternit

   Cement describes a binding substance, which will react chemically with water and develop into a material as hard as stone. In fibre cement, there is a fibre reinforcement, which contributes to making the fibre-cement material even stronger and to better withstand tension. Together with a carefully planned production process, fibre cement makes ...

9. Fiber-reinforced composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_composite

   A fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) is a composite building material that consists of three components: [1] [2] the fibers as the discontinuous or dispersed phase,
