Crack properties, toughness and absorption evaluation of FRCC incorporating reclaimed asphalt pavement and crumb rubber as aggregates

The development and application of fibre-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCC) have evolved significantly over the last decade. However, there is a need to find innovative ways to improve the sustainability of composites. The production and transportation of the major binder (i.e. Portland cemen...
