Study of fibres behaviour in cement composite

Bachelor thesis is focused on behavior of fibers on selected properties of fine–grained cementitious composite in fresh and hardened state. The emphasis is on usage of enviromentaly friendly fibers, specifically fibers obtained from recycled materials. Different fibres in cement composites are compared in terms of geometry and material base. The findings at the theoretical level are summarised, including information from scientific studies. Practical determination of selected properties on fresh composite such as consistency and shrinkage of the material is covered. Mechanical properties such as flexural tensile strength and compressive strength are also determined. The water permeability is also investigated
