In this work, an experimental procedure was conducted to investigate the effect of weight content of short E-glass fibers on the degradation of flexural properties of a hybrid building material, when exposed to a direct gas (propane/butane) flame for varying time intervals. This experimental procedure is aiming on one hand to define the role that E-glass fibers play on the degradation of the flexural properties of the materials tested, as well as to provide a sufficient quantity of experimental data which will allow to quantitatively predict the observed degradation of the aforementioned properties due to exposure to direct gas flame using the Residual Property Model (R.P.M.) developed by the first author and already successfully applied to a number of different materials subjected to a combination of different damage sources.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
