Additional information

The paper investigates methods of improving the transfer of post-crack forces in concrete using fibre technology. Closed loop fibres are not yet commercially available but have potential in terms of carbon reduction and reduced raw materials usage. The research thus makes a strong case for innovation involving new product development.
