Abstract: Tests on fine grain concrete plates with textile reinforcement have been carried out. The textiles used were biaxial warp knitted fabric of alkaline resistant glass, carbon, and aramid. Load displacement curves are presented which show a considerable increase of the bearing capacity due to prestressing. The plates failed either to diagonal crushing or punching.
Keywords: textile reinforcement, fine grain concrete, plate, prestressing, load displacement behaviour, fabric
