Inexpensive and easy to process, cementitious materials dominate the building materials market. Nevertheless, their low tensile strength combined with their low deformation capacity make them very brittle and susceptible to cracking. Cracking due to imposed deformations is a case in point, limiting the durability of applications. Mechanical tests have confirmed that the incorporation of aggregates with...
