IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF DIFFERENT STEEL FIBRES ON MECHANICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE IN CEMENT MORTARS

Impact assessment of different steel fibres on mechanical, environmental and economic performance in cement mortars

The construction industry is moving towards incorporating recycled raw materials to promote sustainability, innovation and environmental responsibility.In this sense, the high economic and ecological costs derived from steel fibre production have led to the use of recycled steel fibres from end-of-life tyres as an alternative reinforcement fibre in
