Effect of polypropylene fibre on cementitious mortar early shrinkage cracking using the eccentric-ring test

The effects of polypropylene fibres on mortar and cement-paste cracking were investigated using different amounts of fibre fractions and eccentric rings under restrained-shrinkage conditions. Eccentric-ring tests were conducted to investigate early-age shrinkage cracks. The characteristics of restri...
