Abstract

The object of the experimental work carried out in this investigation is to study the behaviour of concrete beams reinforced externally with non-woven fabric: under impact loading. Crack initation and pattern, i.e. crack width, heights and spacing records at different stages of loading are reported and discussed. 
Plain and glass fibre reinforced concrete beams were cast and tested under the same conditions and cases of loading as non-woven fabric reinforced concrete beams for comparison.
