The intention of this paper is to analyze the properties of coral aggregate concrete (CAC) that is reinforced by alkali-resistant glass fibers (ARGF) and the bond performance with BFRP (basalt fiber reinforced polymer) bars. Two types of ARGF, denote...
At present, low tensile mechanical properties and a high carbon footprint are considered the chief drawbacks of plain cement concrete (PCC). At the same time, the combination of supplementary cementitious material (SCM) and reinforcement of fiber fil...
Mixing alkali-resistant glass fiber (ARGF) into grouting slurry can prevent the development of cracks; thus, understanding the properties of ARGF grouting material is important for applications in engineering. Two types of ARGFs (Cem-FIL®60 and A...
Glass fibers are widely used in cement-based precast products, given the reinforcing requirements for toughness and strength. However, inferior alkali resistance hinders the effectiveness of glass fibers in reinforcing cement-based materials. In this...
An important way to improve concrete performance is the use of alkali-resistant glass fibers (ARGFs) as reinforcement. This paper is based on the problems of the cracking of the partition wall and lining seepage in Laoshan Tunnel, Qingdao, China. Two...
