Abstract

Global and local information on distribution parameters of steel fibres in fibre reinforced concrete form essential ingredients in pursuit for further development of micromechanical, fracture mechanical or even composite modelling of such materials in the pre- and postcritical ranges. Additionally, quantitative image analysis approaches to specimens of such composites can be executed more effectively when based on proper structural models. This paper outlines first and second order stereological methods for that purpose.
