| Abstract | The purpose of this study is to investigate the single strike impact resistances of ferrocement boat hulls and to assess the effect of the specific
surface of the reinforcement on impact resistance both on different and equal steel content basis. An experimental program is performed on the total of
seven groups of 49 ferrocement panels. The test results show that the method stated in this study can predict accurately the single strike impact resistance of a ferrocement boat hull, and in general, the impact resistance increases with an increase in the
steel content or in the specific surface, but that under almost practical maximum steel content condition the impact resistance does not always increase with an increase in the specific surface of steel wire mesh rein
for cement. |
