Synthetic macro-fibre concrete in composite steel deck floor construction

摘要

Something new is taking off in the world of fibre-reinforced concrete. Distributed fibres have long been used as a replacement for steel reinforcing bars, or fabric, in the casting of concrete structures such as ground-bearing floor slabs. But it has remained common practice to specify steel bars and fabric for composite steel deck concrete floors. Tradition, though, is now being turned on its head as the new synthetic macro-fibre comes of age.
