Synopsis:

Fibre reinforced concrete as a structural material has become popular in the construction industry. Its nonlinear behaviour and material properties encourage to use nonlinear computational methods for the design of fibre reinforced concrete structures. The computational accuracy of obtained results leans on the development and the calibration of material models. The objective of this course is to gain knowledge of short-term and long-term behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete composites, general rules, regulations and recommendations for the design of fibre reinforced concrete structures, as well as the utilization of modern computational approaches for the predication of both crack occurrence and crack propagation.
