Structural Behavior of Ferrocement Beam under Gradual Loading

V P Kushe, M M Pawar

Abstract: The use ferrocement in construction industry to look for a dependable and cheaper strengthening component for reinforced cement concrete structure, proves to be best solution. This paper gives detailed account on word of beam strengthened with ferrocement laminate and compared to a control beam for analysis of the desirable usage of ferrocement. Beam casted with the usage of ferrocement proves to have a higher cracking load, ultimate load & lower deflection as compared with normal beam.
