Understanding cracking evolution in textile reinforced cementitious composites using Acoustic Emission and other monitoring techniques Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Prefabricated building walls of the future will be thinner and lighter than ever. Fiber textile reinforced concrete walls can be built up few millimeters thick, decreasing this way the environmental impact of the structure. The innovative design is discussed in literature the recent decade under the scope of ‘textile reinforced cementitious composites (TRC)’. The TRC wall elements carry layers of orthogonal fiber mats that can withstand and ...
