Abstract

The concrete composites play an important role in the field of concrete. The addition of fibers to concrete enhances the strength properties and ductility characteristics. The use of two or more type of different fibers in sustainable combination has potential to improve the mechanical properties of concrete and results in performance synergy. This combination of fibers, often called hybridization of fibers. The inclusion of fibers into concrete not only provides considerably more ductile structure but also improves the structural properties such as tensile strength, static flexural strength, impact strength, flexural toughness and the energy absorption capacity of the high strength concrete. Ferrocement is light weight and versatile material having high cracking, ductility and fatigue resistance and is additionally impermeable to make it far superior than reinforced concrete. It is used for prefabricated residential units, marine and industrial structures. Slurry infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON) could be considered as a special type of fiber concrete with high fiber content. The matrix consists of cement slurry or flowing.
