Fiber in concrete and asphalt

Definition: 

Fibre is a filament used for dispersal reinforcement of concrete, gas and foam concrete, polystyrene concrete, also added to building mortar, dry building mixes, etc.

Advantages:

• improvement of mechanical properties of concretes, improving crack resistance, shock and wear resistance, tensile strength and flexural strength
• increase of structures durability 
• the possibility of reducing the working sections of structures
• reduce the consumption and in some cases complete refusal from bar reinforcement
• reduce rutting by 2 times
• increase compressive resistance at 50°C from 30% to 80%
• increase water resistance up to 50%
• improvement of shear-resistance according to internal-friction coefficient by 10%-20%

Fields of application: 

Construction
