Abstract
The topic of this article is the experimental and numerical testing of tensile strength of glass textile reinforced cement-based composites with steel fibres. Cement-based composite is similar to high-performance concrete, with its maximal compressive strength higher than 100 MPa. We used thirty six dogbone-shaped specimens for uniaxial tensile loading with three different kinds of textile reinforcement. The difference between reinforcement was in its weight of 1 m2 of textile. We focused on maximal tensile stress in specimens and the ductile behaviour after first cracking occurred. We will compare results from experimental testing made on different types of reinforcement and results from numerical computer model. Tensile stress was generated by loading with constant increase of displacement.
