Comments on: Long carbon fibers could improve blast resistance of concrete structures, say S&T researchers https://news.mst.edu/2009/10/long_carbon_fibers_could_impro/ Your source for the latest from Rolla Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:31:32 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.7 By: Nolan Scheid https://news.mst.edu/2009/10/long_carbon_fibers_could_impro/#comment-209 Sat, 26 Jun 2010 20:32:34 +0000 https://news.wpblog.mst.edu/2009/10/long_carbon_fibers_could_impro/#comment-209 Hello Dr. Volz.
I wonder if you have progressed with your mix designs into shotcrete or sprayed concrete? The 1.5″ length of fibers mentioned in this article are a challenge for pumping. Our sprayer may work for some of them but that long is troublesome.

Best regards,
Nolan Scheid
