Fiber Reinforcing in Slab-on-Ground Applications
Date: March 10, 2022
Time: 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. (ET)
Slabs-on-ground are designed to resist various stresses, including stresses from applied loads, from volume changes in the subgrade soils, and from volume changes in the concrete itself. ACI allows for the usage of fiber reinforced concrete in a slab-on-ground application. Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) contains fibrous material that increases its structural integrity. It contains short discrete fibers that are uniformly distributed and randomly oriented. Fibers have been used to reinforce brittle materials since ancient times. Please attend the webinar to learn typical methods to calculate fiber reinforced concrete dosages in slab applications and learn all the benefits associated with fiber reinforced concrete.
