“…Other fibres, such as glass, basalt, or carbon fibres, have also been mixed with concrete to obtain structurally favourable strain behaviour. For Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) Tassew and Lubell (2014) and Kizilkanat et al (2015) report various strain softening curves, indicating that GFRC could have structural applications albeit perhaps not as part of the main load bearing structure.…”

“…A. B. Kizilkanata and their fellows [5] examined mechanical properties of concrete containing 12mm basalt fiber and different content (0.25%, 0.50% , 0.75% and 1.0%) by total volume. they observed that tensile strength of BFRC increase up to 40% compared to normal concrete at 1% dosage of basalt fiber.…”

This paper represents the outcomes of some latest trends of research in the field of concrete composites prepared with chopped basalt fibers (CBF) as fillers. The paper summarizes noticeable findings of the experimental studies carried out to demonstrate the advantages and limitations of the addition of CBF in a conventional concrete specifically. The review inspired to conclude that the effect of addition of chopped basalt fibers has been studied by performing tests for the workability of fresh mixes, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexure strength with varying fractions and sizes of CBF. It was noticed that the workability reduced with addition of CBF and the strength properties showed an increment due to the CBF addition. However, lacking the explicit knowledge on the optimum dosage and preferred aspect ratio of CBF from the durability perspectives requires attention. Moreover, a compound usage of CBF with prevailing additives namely polymers, fly ash, silica fumes may be one of the potential areas for the researchers. Therefore, a need of extensive experimental study can be proposed dedicated to a full length experimental program for durability studies on concrete containing CBF can be proposed. The research outcomes indicated that addition of CBF into the concrete may prove advantageous to overcome the durability issues of concrete.

“…Its composition is close to glass fiber, but this eruptive rock has less complex structure, its thermal and chemical resistance is much better and production is simpler compared to widely used E-glass fiber [5,6]. As well as glass fibers basalt fibers appeared not only as reinforcement of polymer matrices but also in concretes [7,8].Because of the high performance and the mass production the fiber reinforced plastics are becoming increasingly popular in the automotive industry. These composites usually suffer fatigue load, that is why it is important to investigate the fatigue properties of a new type of composite.…”

In this study the effect of basalt and carbon fiber content on IntroductionPerformance improvement is one of the most important criteria when a novel polymer composite is developed for engineering applications. For the optimal mechanical performance of materials composite industry uses several types of reinforcing materials [1]. The popularity of glass fibers is unbroken, but nowadays carbon fiber is gathering ground, thanks to its decreasing price and well known good mechanical properties [2][3][4]. Another competitor is basalt fiber. Its composition is close to glass fiber, but this eruptive rock has less complex structure, its thermal and chemical resistance is much better and production is simpler compared to widely used E-glass fiber [5,6]. As well as glass fibers basalt fibers appeared not only as reinforcement of polymer matrices but also in concretes [7,8].Because of the high performance and the mass production the fiber reinforced plastics are becoming increasingly popular in the automotive industry. These composites usually suffer fatigue load, that is why it is important to investigate the fatigue properties of a new type of composite. More and more researchers assume that not just the fatigue life of a material is important but also the failure process itself, therefore researchers pay more attention to the investigation of fatigue crack propagation and failure analysis [9][10][11][12][13][14]. Esmaelliou et al. [14] investigated the fatigue properties of glass fiber reinforced polyamide 66, where the load factor which is the ratio of minimal and maximal stress was 0.1 and frequency was 20 Hz. They showed that the fatigue process during loading of polyamide 66 can be divided into three parts. In the first part the relative Young's modulus decreases intensively and temperature increases gradually. Then in the second part, both the temperature and the relative modulus are approximately constant. The third part begins typically when 75% of the number of cycles that belongs to failure is reached. In this part temperature increases and relative modulus decreases again until failure. At higher load levels the second and the third part become less remarkable and gradually disappear by further load increment.There are only a few publication that deals with the investigation of fatigue properties of injection molded thermoplastic
