FERROCEMENT
Mixture of portland cement and sand applied over
layers of woven or expanded steel mesh
Desired shape can be built.
Economical.
Lesser cross sectional area.
Relatively thin, compound curved sheets to make
hulls for boats, shell roofs, water tanks, etc

LATEX
• Latex -carboxylate styrene butadiene copolymer.
• Improves bond strength.
• Increases flexural & compression strength
• Enhances impact strength.
• Resistance to hydrolysis.
![Page 4: Flexural behaviour of fibre reinforced ferrocement concrete](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022050922/559cbe101a28ab8b268b46e1/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
MICRO STEEL FIBER
• Increases structural integrity.
• It contains short discrete fibers that are uniformly
distributed and randomly oriented.
• Controls cracking.
• They also reduce the permeability of slab.
• It produce greater impact, abrasion, and shatter–
resistance in concrete.

The below table shows the increase in percentage of the Flexural strength
and mechanical properties of Latex modified Steel fibre reinforced
ferrocement slabs over Steel fibre reinforced ferrocement slabs

CONCLUSION
Thus from the above comparison it is evident that the
latex modified steel fibre reinforced cement mortar
Ferro cement slabs of 4, 6 and 8 layers are having a
greater flexural strength and mechanical properties.
