Long‐term mechanical properties of hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composite

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composites (hybrid ECC) employing short straight polyethylene (PE) and steel fibers have attracted growing interest in engineering applications due to their superior strength and ductility. In most studies, the mechanical properties of hybrid ECC were determined based on samples cured for 28 days,
