MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE OF HYBRID FIBER-REINFORCED CONCRETE: THE SYNERGISTIC EFFECT OF RAMIE AND MICRO SYNTHETIC FIBERS
Conventional concrete has limitations in tensile strength and crack control. Fiber-reinforced concrete improves these properties, but single fiber types can hinder performance. While steel fibers are common, synthetic and natural fibers are gaining traction due to their cost-effectiveness, performance, and eco-friendli...
