Abstract

The results of studies of fiber reinforced cement foam concrete with mineral and synthetic fibers are given in the article. Introduction of fibers in the amount of 0.1-2% of the weight of cement in the foam concrete mixture enables increase in the strength of the foam concrete in 28 days by 2.5 -fold, decrease in the thermal conductivity by 30-40% and the shrinkage strain by 42-90%.
