IS 17161 : 2020 Flexural Strength and Toughness Parameters of Fibre Reinforced Concrete- Method of Test

ICS 91.100.30 CED 02

New Standard from Last Update.

1 SCOPE

This standard provides a method for evaluating the flexural strength and toughness parameters of fibre reinforced concrete through tests under displacement control, in the third-point loading configuration, of (unnotched) moulded specimens. This test method is intended for concretes with fibres that are not longer than 60 mm. The method can also be used for a combination of fibres of same or different materials.
