Influence of Fiber Distribution and Orientation in the Fracture Behavior of Polyolefin Fiber-Reinforced Concrete

Polyolefin fiber-reinforced concrete (PFRC) has become an attractive alternative to steel for the reinforcement of concrete elements, mainly due to its chemical stability and the residual strengths that can be reached with lower weights. The use of polyolefin fibers can meet the requirements of stan...
