Abstract
This study concentrates on determining the impact strength of polymeric fiber mesh reinforced ferrocement, under low velocity impact load. The Low-velocity impact study has been conducted on 250 mm square ferrocement slabs. The concept of using polymeric wire mesh is to reduce the corrosion of iron wire mesh, which is one of the major reasons for deterioration of ferrocement. The test procedure has been conducted on fifty four specimens including four different types of iron wire mesh and two types of polymeric mesh, with varying mesh layers from one to three. Results emphasized that the impact energy absorption increases with the raise in the number of polymeric mesh layers and the crack widths are least in amount and size compared to the specimens incorporated with iron wire mesh.
