Bibliography

This Part 1 of EN 14889 specifies requirements for steel fibres for structural or non-structural use in concrete, mortar and grout. NOTEStructural use of fibres is where the addition of fibres is designed to contribute to the load bearing capacity of a concrete element. This standard covers fibres intended for use in all types of concrete and mortar, including sprayed concrete, flooring, precast, in-situ and repair concretes.
