The effect of different length of fiber in concrete / Mohd Ali Jelani … [et al.]

Concrete is known to have high compressive strength, stiffness, low thermal and electrical conductivity and low toxic. Another important thing that concrete can be shaped into geometrical properties. However, concrete is brittle and weak in tension. When subjected to tensile stress, unreinforced con...
