The basic properties of high-strength concrete and self-compacting concrete materials have been discussed in order to give a better understanding of how we can best utilize them in new construction projects. Whereas, the primary use for the application of fiber-reinforced polymer sheets and bars have been presented for its ability to reinforce older structures. Thereby making them safer and extending their life-cycle.57Reconocimiento - No comercial - Sin obra derivada (by-nc-nd)Materiales compuestosEnsayos de materiales de construcciónHormigón de alta resistenciaHormigón autocompactanteFibras sintéticasPolímerosEstructuras de hormigónInnovaciones tecnológicasComposite materialsBuilding materials testingHigh strength concreteSelf-consolidating concreteSynthetic textile fibersPolymersConcrete constructionTechnological innovationsCONSTRUCCIONES ARQUITECTONICASGrado en Ingeniería de Edificación-Grau en Enginyeria d'EdificacióProyecto/Trabajo fin de carrera/gradoAbierto
