Impact resistance of fiber reinforced wet-mix shotcrete Part 2: plate tests

摘要

In Part 1 of this paper, data on impact resistance of fiber reinforced wet-mix shotcrete obtained by testing beam specimens was presented. Ten different types of commercially available fibers were investigated. It was argued that since shotcrete in many applications is loaded dynamically, slow-rate static tests are not sufficient for a comprehensive characterization of its in-place perfor- mance.
