What is Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) Market?
Glass fiber strengthened concrete (GFRC) accommodates hydration merchandise of cement, or cement plus sand, and glass fibers. Glass fibers are used as reinforcement for concrete. Glass fibers had been first used to boost cement and urban in Russia. Alkali-resistant glass fibers were eventually evolved withinside the UK and different countries. Glass fibers are to be had withinside the shape of non-stop rovings, chopped strand mats, cranette, wool, ropes, and woven fabric. Glass fibers covered with epoxy resin compounds have additionally been attempted out to defend them from alkali assault with the aid of using Portland cement. The addition of glass fibers of approximately 10% with the aid of using quantity multiplied the tensile electricity with the aid of using kind of times, and the effective resistance with the aid of using approximately 10 times. The cyclic loading exams carried out on glass fiber cement laminates confirmed fatigue resistance of Glass fiber strengthened concrete (GFRC).
