Within the last decade, a new class of civil engineering materials referred to as High Performance Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Composites (HPFRCC) has been developed. As a subset in this new field, additions of polypropylene (PP) fibres, in the form of woven textile fabrics, have proved most successful as reinforcement to cementitious matrices, leading to the development of a novel composite material: so called "Textile Concrete" (TC). Although the strength and modulus of PP are not very high, careful design through the appropriate placement and high fibre volume fraction of a...
