Abstract
The application of pseudo strain-hardening cement composites (PSH2C) to structural systems depends primarily on the tensile response of the materials, which is a direct function of fiber and matrix characteristics, the fiber content or volume fraction. In general, improved response of material is observed with an increase in the fiber volume fraction, as long as the fiber content does not impede mixing. This paper addresses the direct tensile response of pseudo strain hardening cement composites (PSH2C) reinforced with PET fibers, which belongs to a class of discontinuous short fiber reinforced cement based composites characterized by a strain hardening and multiple cracking responses under direct tensile loading. The variables are different types of fibers (PET, PET+PE, PET+PVA).
