Abstract: The study presented here concerns the development of high-strength lightweight Fiber Reinforced Cement-based Composites (FRCC). Parametric study was performed by varying the W/B, volume contents of lightweight aggregate and fiber. Influence of these parameters on the material properties were experimentally investigated. As for the material properties, flow, air content, compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and density were evaluated.
