Carbon fiber reinforced mortar (CFRM) is a cement- based composite that provides manifold benefits including high flexural strength and excellent impact resistance, as compared to ordinary cement mortar. It can be produced by mixing short carbon fibers with plain cement mortar in the presence of high-range water reducer and silica fume. This book gives readers a thorough understanding of the key aspects of CFRM. The performance of CFRM has been discussed in this book with respect to workability, unit weight, air content, strength, impact resistance, toughness, durability, and cost-...
