Abstract:
The theoretical stress-strain behaviour of individual fibre reinforced cement composites is reviewed. Based on the multiple cracking concept of the existing theory, analytical expressions are developed to describe the tensile stress-strain behaviour of a fibre-cement hybrid composite consisting of three components, i.e. two reinforcing fibres with different moduli, strengths and strains to failure and a common cement binder. The model predicts that the tensile stress-strain curve of the hybrid composites consists of five stages, instead of three stages of the existing models for individual fib

Abstract:
Wood pulp fibers are a unique reinforcing material as they are non-hazardous, renewable, and readily available at relatively low cost compared to other commercially available fibers. Today, pulp fiber-cement composites can be found in products such as extruded non-pressure pipes and non-structural building materials, mainly thin-sheet products. Although natural fibers have been used historically to reinforce various building materials, little scientific effort has been devoted to the examination of natural fibers to reinforce engineering materials until recently.

Abstract:
The demand for road making materials continues to pressurise the supply of traditional good quality aggregates. Over the years, therefore, consideration has been given to alternative materials including industrial wastes. This thesis is concerned with potential use of Minestone, the by-product of coal mining, for the lower structural layers of pavement construction. Because of their clay like nature, Minestones do not merit consideration for such applications in an unbound state and, therefore, some form of stabilisation is necessary.

Abstract:
Engineered Cement Composite (ECC) materials have the potential to be used in civil engineering applications where a level of pseudo-ductility is required. Of particular interest is the possibility of eliminating the steel from reinforced cementitious structures ensuring that no long-term corrosion exists, which is especially relevant for hydraulic tunnels. Uncertainties remain, however, with regard to the mechanical performance, physical properties, durability and shrinkage of these materials, especially when they are used in thick sections for large scale engineering structures.

Analysis of calcium and oxygen atom arrays of known cement minerals and the structures of cellulose polymorphs were performed to see if it was possible to arrange a cellulose fibre on a cement mineral face such that the fibre is bonded by a repeating array of hydrogen or hydroxide coordination bonds for the full length of the attachment. Of the sixteen important cement minerals modelled, xonotlite, foshagite, tricalcium aluminate hydrate, chondronite and rosenhahnite could form such bonds to modified cellulose fibre.

Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is the main constituent of concrete works as a principal binder for aggregates and intrinsically transmits the brittleness into concrete through the formation of hydration crystals in the cement microstructure.

This can be mitigated by the use of fibre reinforced-concretes or mortars showing strain hardening properties accompanied by improved ductility and multiple cracking under tensile loading.

Cements and cement-based systems have excellent potential as immobilising matrices for toxic inorganic wastes. This potential is a result of the unique chemical and physical mechanisms which operate on particular waste species to prevent their release into ground waters. These mechanisms are reviewed in this thesis. Some wastes are suitable for direct cementing, such as waste streams form nuclear fuel reprocessing, where cement technology is applied. Other wastes are less well characterised and may be unsuitable for direct cementing. This often arises because waste species concentrations are h

When SHCC is subjected to tensile loading, fine multiple cracking occurs that portrays a pseudo strain hardening effect as a result.
