TL;DR: In this article, the basic concepts of mechanical properties of fibers - tension, bending constitutive materials mixture proportions - mixing and casting procedures properties of freshly mixed FRC properties of hardened FRC compression, tension and flexure FRC under impact and fatigue loading creep, shrinkage and long-term performance of FRC plastic drying shrinkage fiber-reinforced shotcrete glass fiber reinforced cement (GFRF) thin sheet products slurry infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the experimental stress-strain behavior of fiber-reinforced concrete with compressive strength ranging from 5 ksi to 12 ksi (35 MPa to 85 MPa).

TL;DR: In this paper, the fire response of a potassium aluminosilicate (Geopolymer) matrix carbon fiber composite was measured and the results compared to organic matrix composites being used for transportation, militar y, and infrastructure applications.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the loss of bond strength of reinforced bars embedded in concrete using external current source and found that the mass loss of reinforcement varied from 0% for the control to 5.91%.
