2. Fiber-reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_concrete

   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. This may, in part, be due to issues relating to oxidation or corrosion of steel reinforcements.

3. 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 ...

4. 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.

5. High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

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

   The first property listed, the ultimate tensile strength of 4.6 MPa, is slightly larger than the accepted tensile strength of standard fiber-reinforced concretes, (4.3 MPa). More notable, however, is the extremely high ultimate strain value of 5.6% when compared to most FRC's ultimate strain values ranging in the few hundredths of a percent.

6. Reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforced_concrete

   Fiber reinforcement is mainly used in shotcrete, but can also be used in normal concrete. Fiber-reinforced normal concrete is mostly used for on-ground floors and pavements, but can also be considered for a wide range of construction parts (beams, pillars, foundations, etc.), either alone or with hand-tied rebars.
