2. Engineered cementitious composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_cementitious...

   Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC), also called Strain Hardening Cement-based Composites (SHCC) or more popularly as bendable concrete, is an easily molded mortar -based composite reinforced with specially selected short random fibers, usually polymer fibers. [1] Unlike regular concrete, ECC has a tensile strain capacity in the range of 3 ...

3. High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

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

   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. The first crack stress and first crack strain values are significantly low compared to normal concrete, both the result of the multiple crack phenomenon associated with HPFRCCs.

4. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

   Expansion joint on a bridge. A expansion joint, or movement joint, is an assembly designed to hold parts together while safely absorbing temperature-induced expansion and contraction of building materials. They are commonly found between sections of buildings, bridges, sidewalks, railway tracks, piping systems, ships, and other structures.

5. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

   Filler materials are particles added to resin or binders (plastics, composites, concrete) that can improve specific properties, make the product cheaper, or a mixture of both. [1] The two largest segments for filler material use is elastomers and plastics. [2] Worldwide, more than 53 million tons of fillers (with a total sum of approximately US ...

6. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   Self-healing concrete. Self-healing concrete is characterized as the capability of concrete to fix its cracks on its own autogenously or autonomously. It not only seals the cracks but also partially or entirely recovers the mechanical properties of the structural elements. This kind of concrete is also known as self-repairing concrete.

7. Fiber-reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-reinforced_concrete

   Fiber-reinforced concrete or fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) is concrete containing fibrous material which increases its structural integrity. It contains short discrete fibers that are uniformly distributed and randomly oriented. Fibers include steel fibers, glass fibers, synthetic fibers and natural fibers [1] – each of which lend varying ...
