DOI: 10.3390/ma15175916
Abstract: This work investigates the effect of various sand fractions on the ballistic resistance of ultra-high-performance steel-fibre-reinforced concrete (UHP-SFRC) samples. We specifically investigated replacing expensive and generally inaccessible microsands with commonly available sands. The tests and… read more here.
