Reinforced cementitious composite panels were produced by mixing of chopped steel wool fiber with a ratio range between 0.5% to 6.0% and 0.5% as a step increment of the total mixture weight, where the cement to sand ratio was 1:1.5 with water to cement ratio of 0.45. The generated reinforced cementitious panels were tested at 28 days in terms of load-carrying capacity, deflection capacities, post-yielding effects, and flexural toughness. The inclusion of chopped steel wool fiber until 4.5% resulted in gradually increasing load-carrying capacity and deflection capacities while, provides various ductility, which would simultaneously the varying of deflection capability in the post-yielding stage. Meanwhile, additional fiber beyond 4.5% resulted in decreased maximum load-carrying capacity and increase stiffness at the expense of ductility. Lastly, the inclusion of curves gradually.}, type={Article}, title={Experimental investigation of chopped steel wool fiber at various ratio reinforced cementitious composite panels}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/120663/PDF/37_ACE-00052_A4v3.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2021.138076}, keywords={Steel fibers, Chopped steel wool fiber, Cementitious composites panels, Load carrying capacity}, }
