Abstract

Although the use of Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC) for structural applications is continuously increasing, it is still limited with respect to its potentials mainly due to the lack of International Building Codes for FRC structural elements. The New Model Code includes several innovations and addresses, among other topics, new materials for structural design, including FRC. The material requirements and design aspects for FRC structures were prepared by Technical Groups fib TG 8.3 “ Fibre reinforced concrete” and TG 8.6 “Ultra high performance fibre reinforced concrete”. This paper aims to briefly explain the main concepts behind the structural rules for shear design of FRC elements.
