Description
The objective of the session is to bring together experts from around the world to discuss projects over 10 years old where fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) was successfully used and provided sustainable, resilient and durable solutions.
This session will include presentations reviewing several representative case studies of projects where FRC was successfully used and provided sustainable, resilient, and durable solutions. Case studies will include projects over 10 years old at various geographic locations all over the work using different types of fibers, as well as hybrid solutions for a broad range of applications. Material suppliers, engineers, designers, researchers, and scientists will benefit from this session.
