Abstract
The stress-crack width relationship has been determined experimentally for concretes reinforced with two types of fibres, steel and polypropylene, of various fibre volume fractions. A micromechanics-based theoretical model is proposed which captures the essential features of the stress-crack width relationships at small crack widths (less than 0.3 mm). Micromechanisms accounted for include the bridging actions due to aggregates and fibres,...
