Enhances tensile and flexural strength, prevents plastic shrinkage cracks.
FBR500 fiber reinforcement in concrete and mortar systems:
- Mechanical Strength: Fibers provide three-dimensional micro-reinforcement to the matrix, increasing flexural and tensile strength. Especially through the fiber-bridging effect, crack propagation is prevented.
- Crack Control: Reduces plastic shrinkage cracks and stabilizes microcracks formed during settlement.
- Mix Stability: Reduces the segregation tendency of concrete and contributes to the homogeneous distribution of aggregates.
- Pumpability: High fiber dispersion improves pumpability and workability.
- Early Strength Development: Strengthens the integrity of the mix, shortening demolding time.
