Fibers
Fibers
have been used in construction materials for many centuries. The last
few decades have seen a growing interest in the use of fibers in ready-mixed
concrete, precast concrete, and shotcrete. Fibers can be made from steel,
plastic, glass, and natural materials and are available in a variety of
shapes, sizes, and thicknesses. This webinar will discuss fibers for use
in concrete.
At the end of this course, participants will have the ability to:
| • discuss the advantages and disadvantages of fibers in concrete |

the webinar, registered participants will be emailed a copy of the presentation
slides, a certificate for 0.1 CEU credit, and a PDF of “Fibers”,
Chapter 7 of PCA’s Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures,
