Excerpt

Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC) and Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Composites (FRCCs) represent nowadays a quite mature technology in the field of concrete construction industry, with applications ranging from slabs on grade and elevated slabs, to precast tunnel segments and other kinds of prefabricated structural elements. Increasing awareness of the great engineering potentials of this technology has also results into acceptance by several national and international design codes, which now already have incorporated design provisions for FRC elements (see for example fib Model Code 2010). …
