The world's biomes. Biomes are defined as the world's major communities, classified according to the predominant vegetation and characterized by adaptations of organisms to that particular environment (Campbell 1996). The importance of biomes cannot be overestimated.
Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is concrete containing fibrous material which increases its structural integrity.he concept of using fibers as reinforcement is not new. Fibers have been used as reinforcement since ancient times. Historically, horsehair was used in mortar and straw in mud bricks. In the 1900s, asbestos fibers were used in concrete.
For the rigid composite material made from carbon fiber used in aerospace and other applications, see Carbon fiber reinforced polymer. Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are fibers about 5â10 micrometres in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms.
