Mechanism of steel fibre in concrete
Nowadays, steel fibre reinforced concrete is widely used in tunnel construction. The reason lies in the fact that steel fibres can transmit tensile stresses at concrete cracks. A remarkable increase in ductility and tensile strength can be ensured, resulting from adding of steel fibre into brittle concrete. With its anchor hooks at both ends, a wire fibre can transmit tensile stresses, decrease the crack opening.
