How fibre reinforced concrete prevents cracking?

From concrete technology

Your Answer

Fiber-reinforced concrete enhances the durability of concrete by reducing crack width typically due to plastic shrinkage, long term drying shrinkage and thermal changes. Because concrete cannot be prevented from cracking, the goal is to keep the cracks tightly closed in order to maintain long-term durability.
