Vc. Li et al., TENSILE BEHAVIOR OF CEMENT-BASED COMPOSITES WITH RANDOM DISCONTINUOUSSTEEL FIBERS, Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 79(1), 1996, pp. 74-78
In this paper, the tensile properties of cement-based composites conta
ining random discontinuous steel fibers are reported. Direct tensile t
ests were performed to study the effects of fiber length (hence fiber
aspect ratio)? interfacial bonding, and processing conditions on compo
site properties. Composite tensile strength and ductility are highligh
ted and discussed.
