Abstract: The application of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) in the various constructions in Nuclear Power Plants and particularly in the shields for protection against γ and neutron radiation seems possible and useful. A few examples of shields built with FRC are described and reviewed and the question is formulated why this kind of cement based composites are rather infrequently used in that area.
