ECC offer large potential for durable civil infrastructure due to their high tensile strain capacity and controlled micro-crack width. In this study, fibre volume fractions (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) of both polypropylene and glass fibers varied and durability measures such as a rapid chloride penetration test, sorptivity, water absorption, acid attack, and sulphate attack were measured. Increasing the fiber content up to 1.5% improved the durability properties of ECC. The test results indicate that the glass fiber-reinforced Engineered Cementitious Composites have better durability characteristics than polypropylene fiber-reinforced ECC.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Badanie porównawcze właściwości wytrzymałościowych inżynieryjnych kompozytów cementowych z włóknem propylenowym i włóknem szklanym}, title={Comparative study on durability properties of engineered cementitious composites with polypropylene fiber and glass fiber}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/115481/PDF/83-101_ace-2017-0042.pdf}, keywords={inżynieryjne kompozyty cementowe, włókno polipropylenowe ECC, włókno szklane ECC, wytrzymałość, popiół lotny, beton, beton wzmacniany włóknami, zaprawa cementowa, Engineered Cementitious Composites, Polypropylene fiber, Glass fiber, Durability, Fly ash, Concrete}, }
