DRYING SHRINKAGE OF GLASS FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE. TECHNICAL NOTE

Tests on the shrinkage behavior of glass fiber reinforced concrete show that shrinkage strain is decreased with the increase of the fiber content. The results of a three dimensional finite-element analysis of samples tested in the laboratory showed good agreement with those obtained from the experimental results. The details of the measurements are described and the results are tabulated and discussed.
