OPTIMIZATION OF SIFCON MIX. FIBRE REINFORCED CEMENTS AND CONCRETES: RECENT DEVELOPMENTS. PROCEEDINGS OF AN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WALES, COLLEGE OF CARDIFF, SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING, UNITED KINGDOM, SEPTEMBER 18-20, 1989

Uniaxial tensile tests have been performed on various mixes of SIFCON (Slurry Infiltrated Fibre Concrete) with the aim to improve mixing techniques and mechanical properties. An optimum mix has been developed showing excellent workability, ductility, and strength.(A) For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 827953.
