GFRC is one of the most versatile building materials available to architects and engineers.

It has contributed significantly to the economics, technology and aesthetics of the


construction industry. In line with this importance, a comprehensive review that was
investigated widespread methods of production of GFRC and compatibility of developing
technology was hereby aimed in understanding on the mechanical and physical properties of
GFRC (Iskender & Karasu, 2018).

In general, the addition of glass fiber results in a higher compressive strength, but excessive
amount of fibre causes a reduction in the strength due to reduced workability. There is no
significant improvement in the modulus of elasticity of the concrete with the addition of
fibres a low volume fraction. Glass fibres have positive effect on stress–strain curve of GFRC
and flexural strength, because of the increase in the aspect ratio of fibres resulting in an
increase pull-out and energy absorption of the GFRC (Iskender & Karasu, 2018).

Generally, GFRC's service life is higher than traditional concrete due to controlling of micro
cracks propagation, corrosion (especially AR–glass fibre) and less permeability. GFRC is
lightweight and is about 50–70 % lighter than traditional concrete. However, it is difficult to
self–mix (requirement of special material). Its cost is higher than that of traditional concrete
due to the fiberglass, addition of additives and acrylic co–polymer, but developing
technology can substantially change this comparison (Iskender & Karasu, 2018).

Its the most adaptable building materials accessible to architects and engineers. The
contribution of this GFRC is significantly to the economics, to the technology, and esthetic of
the construction business. Match with this importance, that was investigated broadly of the
production of GFRC and aimed to understand on the mechanism and physical properties.

In result of fiber glass it gives a greater strength when talkinh a bout the compressive, but
enormous amount that causes fiber a cutback of the strength because it shortened
workability. This gives great effect on stress-strain curve and flexural strength, due to the
increase in the ratio of fibre giving the result in an increasing pull-out and absorption of
energy.

According to Iskender & Karasu, “GFRC's service life is higher than traditional concrete due
to controlling of micro cracks propagation, corrosion (especially AR–glass fibre) and less
permeability.” A lightweight and lighter than traditional concrete is about 50-70%. Every cost

Is higher than this traditional concrete due to the fiber glass, the additional of preservative
and acrylic polymer.
