Abstract
Experimental results highlight the importance of the stirrup spacing in the critical region as well as the positive effect of fibers on the crack development, by preventing the concrete cover to spall-out at earlier stages. Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) tends to enhance the structural stiffness, the strength and the dissipated energy.
