Sustainable Potential of Textile-Reinforced Concrete

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2015
The building construction industry is in need of sustainable materials and solutions. A novel building material, such as textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), could be used to meet this demand. TRC is a combination of fine-grained concrete and multi-axial textile fabrics, which has been fundamentally researched over the past decade. TRC-based research has

Tensile response of textile reinforced concrete

Construction and Building Materials, 2020
Abstract Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is a cementitious composite material where a carbon or glass fabric is embedded as reinforcement. The use of TRC allows building thin and light structures, with reduced concrete covers and an enhanced durability due to the absence of corrosion problems. In this article, the response of TRC elements subjected

Shear Strengthening with Textile Reinforced Concrete

IABSE Reports, 2014
<p> A large part of existing bridges in Germany exhibits deficits in the shear capacity under static and cyclic loading according to the current design rules. More structures are expected to demand refurbishment and strengthening within the next years especially due to the current conditions of many older road bridges.

Durability of Textile Reinforced Concrete

SP-244: Thin Fiber and Textile Reinforced Cementitious Systems, 2007
Concrete specimens with unidirectional embedded AR-glass rovings were stored in a climatic test chamber at 40 °C (104 °F) and 99 % r.h. After this storage, the bending strengths of the specimens were tested. The uncovered fibers were observed with an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM). The specimens made of the low alkaline matrix and AR-

High-Performance Textile-Reinforced Concrete

Structural Engineering International, 1999
The use of textiles as reinforcement in concrete is a recent and innovative development. Because of certain advantages of textile-reinforced concrete in comparison with conventional composite building materials, the use of elements formed with textiles has a potentially bright future.

Development of binders for textile reinforced concrete

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2021
Abstract The current study focuses on minimizing the waste at is generated as part of the industrial process. These wastes are disposal becomes a major threat to the environment. As a measure to utilize these wastes as a construction material. The current study utilizes fly ash and silica fume as part of binder mixes that have been investigated.

Textile reinforced concrete

2007
A state of the art is given about cement composites, and their specific characteristics compared to polymer composites. Examples of applications are given. Fundamental behaviour differences between short fibre and textile reinforcement are treated.

Application of Polymers to Textile-Reinforced Concrete

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2006
In order to improve the load bearing behavior of concrete structures which are subject to bending and tensile stresses, a steel reinforcement is, in general, applied. For reasons of corrosion protection, the steel reinforcement requires a concrete cover with a thickness of several centimeters.

Dimensioning and Application of Textile-Reinforced Concrete

SP-250: Textile-Reinforced Concrete, 2008
Textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) is a composite material consisting of textile reinforcement and fine-grained concrete. Because of different bond performance and material properties of textiles compared to reinforcing steel, the load-bearing behavior of TRC differs from that of ordinary reinforced concrete.
