Glass fibres do not rust like steel reinforment can and they meld togeter like fiber glass dose, they (if mixed properly, for at least 10 mins beforehand) are more consistent throughout the mix too. Allow one bag of XT fibres (cost about £6 each) per cubic meter of concrete. Regards Colin

What is the difference between lean concrete and mass concrete?

Mass concrete is concrete cast without Rebars. They are good in compression and are mostly used for the construction of gravity structures such as Dams. While reinforced concrete have reinforcement bars in them, which increases the tensile strenght of the concrete.

Difference between rcc and pcc?

PCC is plain cement concrete. It consists of cement, sand, aggregates and water. It is good at resisting compression. RCC is reinforced cement concrete. It consists of cement, steel, aggregate and water. It is good at resisting tensile stresses also.
