The structural use of fibrous-cement in partially prestressed composite concrete construction (1976)
Thesis
Saunders, J. The structural use of fibrous-cement in partially prestressed composite concrete construction. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

A new concept in composite construction has been developed at the University of Salford, involving the use of fibre-reinforced cement channels, combined structurally with partially prestressed composite concrete T-beams. The British Standards Ins... Read More about The structural use of fibrous-cement in partially prestressed composite concrete construction.

High strength steel reinforcement in ordinary reinforced and fibre reinforced cement composite lightweight concrete beams (1975)
Thesis
Al-Sanjary, K. High strength steel reinforcement in ordinary reinforced and fibre reinforced cement composite lightweight concrete beams. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

When high strength steel is used as reinforcement in lightweight concrete members, great economies can be achieved. However, because lightweight concrete has low tensile strength and modulus of elasticity, the working steel stresses hoped for may not...
