Original Abstract

The results of fracture experiments on ferrocement specimens are presented in this paper. The main aim is the determination and comparison of mechanical/fracture parameter values of a composite both with and without a reinforcing metal grid. It covers parameters describing the behaviour of specimens up to the maximal load reached, which is quantified here by effective fracture toughness/toughness, and also a parameter describing the behaviour of a material after reaching maximal load, which is expressed by work of fracture (fracture energy).
