What is Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC)
Steel fibre reinforced concrete is defined as a concrete, containing discontinuous discrete steel fibres. SFRC products are manufactured by adding steel fibres to the ingredients of concrete in the mixer and by transferring the green concrete into moulds. The product is then compacted and cured by the conventional methods.
It is well established that one of the important properties of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) is its superior resistance to cracking and crack propagation. As a result of this ability to arrest cracks, fibre composites possess increased extensibility and tensile strength, both at first crack and at ultimate, particular under flexural loading; and the fibres are able to hold the matrix together even after extensive cracking
We at NUTEK® use the Highest Quality Steel Fibres which conforms to ATSM A820 Standards.
