Justification of the purposes of using basalt fiber in cement concrete

Abstract

The creation of modern high-efficiency building materials and products, to which the demands are constantly increasing, can be successfully implemented using technologies using composite materials. Particularly promising are dispersed reinforced concrete, in which a strong matrix and reinforcing fibers are successfully combined. The matrix provides high compressive strength, bending strength, and durability, while dispersed fibers are characterized by significant tensile strength, high elastic modulus, and the ability to distribute loads throughout the entire volume. Such a combination increases crack resistance, improves the operational properties and durability of structures, and opens up new possibilities for use in modern engineering structures and industrial construction.
