Fiber concrete is in fact a composite which has very high flexural and tensile strength it perfectly integrates concrete as a ductile material to produce resilient and curved surfaces.
The fiber concrete slab is very solid and very resilient. another advantage of fiber concrete is the uniform play of packaging on the package and reducing the runtime compared to the armature.
Reducing the thickness of the concrete, preventing rupture and fragmentation during the years of operation, and reducing costs by 10 to 15 percent, than the use of reinforcement is one of the main advantages of fiber concrete.
The company has completed several projects with various types of fibers, such as all types of metal fibers, ceramic fibers, synthetic fibers (polymers), carbon fibers and polypropylene.
Other features of fiber reinforced concrete include:
– High energy absorption
– Resistance to wear and tear
– Resistance to fatigue stresses
– Increased impact resistance
– Fertility potential after possible cracks in concrete
– Increased shear strength by 35%
– Increase concrete strain capacity
– Resistance to thermal stresses
– Avoid cracks in concrete
– Reduced chlorine ion penetration and control of corrosion of concrete
– Application:
Slabs, industrial floor slabs, pavements, ramps and nests and runways, tunnels, explosive structures, exposed concrete, cold stores, dams.
*It is worth mentioning fiber concrete, such as the properties of plastic materials. The spreading of fibers is multidimensional and widespread, and in the case of cracks, it creates in various directions a tie that prevents crack expansion.
Types of fibers:
– Steel Fibers
– carbon fiber
– Polypropylene fibers
– Ceramic fiber
