Opis

A wide range of textiles can significantly improve the mechanical behavior of cement matrices under static and dynamic conditions, and give superior tensile strength, toughness, ductility, energy absorption and protection. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of TRC, from the basics of the composite material to its structural performance
