Classification and application of concrete fiber

Concrete fiber is a new type of concrete reinforcement material, which is widely used in infrastructure construction such as buildings, roads, bridges, etc. It improves the performance of concrete by adding specific fibers to concrete, and improves its crack resistance, impact resistance and fatigue resistance.

Classification:

The classification of concrete fiber is also an aspect that is easy to confuse.

According to the material of the fiber, concrete fiber can be divided into steel fiber, polymer fiber, glass fiber, natural fiber, etc.

Steel fiber has high strength and stiffness and is suitable for structures with large loads;

Polymer fiber is lighter and has good corrosion resistance, suitable for use in wet environments;

Glass fiber is often used to enhance the tensile strength of concrete;

Natural fibers such as wood fiber and hemp fiber have environmentally friendly characteristics and are suitable for use in projects requiring sustainable development.

Application:

In terms of application, the scope of use of concrete fiber is very wide.

It can be used in a variety of projects such as industrial flooring, tunnel lining, bridges, roads, airport runways, etc.

For example, in industrial flooring, concrete fiber can effectively reduce the risk of ground cracking and improve the wear resistance and service life of the floor.

In road construction, concrete fibers can improve the impact resistance of the road surface and reduce surface damage caused by vehicle travel.
