Abstract
The complexity of architecture is continuously growing. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new construction system with complicated topology using less human work. A fibre-concrete is very promising material to solve those problems. However, design methods of fibre-concrete load bearing structures such as columns are not well developed. Therefore, a new numerical simulation framework is proposed for analysis of fibre-concrete structures macro scale. The method can take into account non-linear post-cracking behaviour of fibre concrete. This includes local fibre orientation in thin elements, anisotropic continuum damage models on different scales, efficient meso-scale fibre orientation prediction tools and others. The proposed method is used to analyse building’s columns where part of structural elements is made from fibre-concrete. The effectiveness of fibre-concrete is estimated and proposed a guideline for optimal design using fibre-concrete.
