英国北爱尔兰LIRA研究所的研究者们正致力于研制利用纺织物增固的混凝土。他们发现,钢筋混凝土的耐压性能虽好,但抗拉性和挠曲性极差。为此,该研究所和北爱尔兰大学民用工程系制订了一项共同研究和开发规划。 Researchers at the LIRA Institute in Northern Ireland, Northern Ireland, are working on the development of concrete reinforced with textiles. They found that although the compressive strength of reinforced concrete is good, it has very poor tensile and flexural properties. To this end, the Institute and the Northern Ireland Department of Civil Engineering developed a joint research and development plan.
