Abstract
The addition of small amounts of fiber reinforcement is an alternative for producing high strength concrete with significantly improved durability that industry is demanding. Carbon fiber reinforced concrete in particular has shown to have excellent durability properties due to the fiber's high resistance to wear, heat and corrosion. This paper presents the results of some fundamental investigations on the bulk electrical properties of carbon fiber cement composites under compressive loading. The resistance behavior was evaluated for various fiber volume contents, and the effects of taking resistance measurements both parallel and perpendicular to the axis of loading were investigated.
