Performance assessment of waste fiber-reinforced mortar

Postprint de "Materials Science Forum", Vols. 730-732 (2013), pp. 617-622. ; In this paper an experimental work is presented which main objective is the evaluation of the influence of different percentages of waste fibrous materials usage on the performance of fiberreinforced mortars. Moreover, the influence of binder type is evaluated. Therefore mortars were produced with two different binders – cement and po...

Performance assessment of waste fibre-reinforced mortar

Directionally oriented fibrous structures for llghtweight concrete elements rei...

This paper reports on the work that is being undertaken at the University of Minho concerning the development of directionally oriented fibrous structures (DOFS) to be used as a concrete reinforcement material. Several glass fibre wovenlike DOFS were produced varying two parameters: roving linear density (tex) and reinforcement structural density (rovings/ cm). Self-compacting concrete slabs were reinforced by ...

Composite rods as a steel substitute in concrete reinforcement

The current work is concerning with the development of braided reinforced composites rods for concrete reinforcement, as a steel substitute. The research study aims to understand the mechanical behaviour of composite rods reinforced by a fibrous structure – core reinforced braided fabric. Several samples of braided reinforced composite rods were produced. Polyester fibres were used to produce the braided fabric...

Core reilforced braided composite armour as a substitute to steel in concrete r...

This paper presents the work that is being done at the University of Minho concerning the development of brainded rods concrete reinforcement. Several samples of core reinforced braided fabrics have been produced varying the type of braided fabric (core reinforced and hybrid), the linear density of the core reinforcing yarns and the type of braiding structure (with or without ribs). The tensile properties of br...

The mechanical properties of braided reinforced composites for application in c...

The current work is concerned with the development of braided reinforced composites for civil engineering applications. The research study aims at understanding the mechanical behaviour of core reinforced braided fabrics. Various samples have been produced using polyester fibres, for the production of the braided fabrics, and glass, carbon, polyethylene and sisal fibres, for the core reinforcement. The results ...
