The use of fiber reinforced concrete has increased in the last 5 years thanks to its acceptance as a structural material in several of the regulations that govern structural concrete at national and international level. However, its vision as a material has been limited to typologies in which the material works mainly in compression or low tensile stresses, avoiding applications in which the tensile stresses are high (slabs of floors, for example).
The general objective of this project is to develop a new slab system using high performance fibre reinforced concrete (HRF) without traditional reinforcement, leading to an increase in sustainability from an economic, environmental and social point of view.
