High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cement Composites
Edited by H.W.Reinhardt and A.E.Naaman
Advanced composites and the fundamental understanding of their behaviour is a rapidly
expanding area of civil engineering. These materials can be designed to have outstanding
combinations of strength (five-to ten-times that of conventional concrete) and energy
absorption capacity (up to 1000-times that of plain concrete). Exciting engineering
applications are therefore being developed to take advantage of these properties for blast
resistant, earthquake resistant and offshore structures, and also for building components
such as cladding, pipes, tiles and roofing.
This book provides a compendium of the most recent research advances and reviews
presented at an international workshop held under the auspices of RILEM and the
American Concrete Institute in Mainz, Germany in June 1991. It includes over 40
contributions from the leading international specialists and researchers from USA,
Europe, Japan and elsewhere and is an essential reference for engineers and researchers
who need to be at the forefront of developments in cement composites.
Among the materials discussed are composites containing steel, polypropylene,
polyacryonitrile, carbon, glass and cellulose fibres. SIFCON is extensively covered. The
other main topics considered are: technologies of production; composite optimization;
mechanical fracture and interface properties; modelling; structural applications and
implications.

Fibre Reinforced Cement and Concrete
Edited by R.N.Swamy
Fibre reinforced cement-based materials are being increasingly used throughout the
world, for applications which range from simple shelter structures to advanced
construction engineering. This book provides a comprehensive updating on recent
research and development into these materials from over 100 leading specialists from all
parts of the world.
Because of concern about long-term performance of fibre composites, special emphasis
is given to ageing and durability. Information on newer, high performance fibres and
reinforcing elements as well as the results of studies of composites made using the more
established steel and glass fibres, are presented in the book. Natural fibres and
wood/cellulose fibres are readily available in developing countries, and these, together
with ferrocement, form important themes.
Fabrication techniques, engineering properties, dynamic and structural behaviour,
fracture behaviour, modelling, and applications of fibre reinforced cement and concrete
and ferrocement are all covered.
The book forms the Proceedings of the Fourth RILEM International Symposium on the
subject, previous ones being held in London in 1975, and Sheffield in 1978 and 1986.
The book will be valuable for all those involved with research into the applications of
new construction materials who need to keep up to date with the latest advances in this
field.
