Abstract:
Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) has gained widespread acceptance as a suitable construction material for a wide variety of non-structural applications. There has been little achieved in the development of analysis and design procedures, however, that capitalize on the engineering properties of FRC. This article includes a design example of residential, FRC walls built using stay-in-place insulating concrete forms (ICF).
