Abstract
Research and development regarding fiber reinforced materials (FRC) has evolved steadily with most notable progress having been made with the periodic introduction of new fiber types; including materials and form or shape. The attendant interest associated with new fibers has invariably led to an improved understanding of the mechanics of behavior of FRC and to new applications. The use of collated fibrillated polypropylene fibers (CFP) at low fiber volumes improves many aspects of the production and application of FRC including mixing and placement.
