Possibilities of dispersed reinforcement for lightweight concrete
Novotná, Aneta ; Žítt, Petr (referee) ; Láník, Jaromír (advisor)
Master´s thesis deals with some problems associated with utilisation of lightweight concrete from the porous aggregates in the load – carrying structures. The thesis focuses on the possibilities of the increase of the cement composites toughness using dispersed reinforcement. Lightweight concretes were reinforced with a combination of different lengths of polypropylene fibers Forta Ferro. There were used polypropylene fibers of three lengths 19, 38, 54 mm. The thesis is divided into theoretical, experimental and static part.

Fibre reinforcement with plasma in cement composites
Žižková, Lucie ; Hela,, Rudofl (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
The usage of polymer fibres can be increased by the new progressive method of the plasma treatment. This thesis is focused on verification of the influence of the low-temperature treatment on polymer fibres´ surface used in concrete. The treatment of polypropylene fibres in low-temperature plasma is described in the theoretical part. The impact of the treatment on the volume differences of cement composites is also evaluated. The influence of the addition of commercially available fibres and plasma treated fibres on the volume differences of cement composites is also experimentally verified.

Study of the properties of cement composites with polypropylene fiber modified low-temperature plasma
Žižková, Lucie ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
Plasma treatment of polypropylene fibers presents a new progressive method, how to increase the utility properties of these fibers. The thesis is focused on verifying the effect of surface treatment of polypropylene fibers in concrete with low-temperature plasma discharge in the normal atmosphere. The paper describes the procedure for treatment of polypropylene fibers with low-temperature plasma and evaluate the impact of this adjustment on the volume changes of cement composites. It should also be emphasized that the thesis is focused on the initial volume changes, ie volume changes in the early stages of solidification and only for your own mixture, which is not considered an external load. Subsequently, the experimental verification of the effect of the addition made commercially available fibers and fibers treated plasma volume changes to a selected physico-mechanical properties of the test compounds.

The behavior of cementitious composites with fiber reinforcement at high temperatures
Fichtová, Zlata ; Herka, Petr (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This master’s thesis studies the influence of dispersed reinforcement on the behaviour of cement composites at thermal loading. In the theoretical part of the research was performed knowledge of the behaviour of concrete at high temperatures. The paper describes the on-going happening in the individual components of concrete and benefits of using dispersed reinforcement. In the practical part were designed concrete mixtures with different types and quantities of fibers. The object of the research was to determine how different types and amounts of fibers affect the physical - mechanical properties of concrete and their suitability for use in high temperatures.

Study of the influence of fillers and external conditions on the resistivity of cement composites
Kejda, Dalibor ; Melichar, Jindřich (referee) ; Černý, Vít (advisor)
The progress of new materials is important for the construction industry. Modern materials include cement composites with reduced resistivity. This is achieved by adding suitable electrically conductive fillers. If there is enough of these fillers, the so-called percolation threshold occurs. Suitable fillers (Condufit C4 and Supragraphite C300) have been proposed. Recipes have been designed to be before and after the percolation threshold. The tests were performed on beams measuring 40x40x160 mm with built-in electrodes for measuring their resistivity. The aim of the work was the research of influencing external conditions on cement composites. The effect of temperature was verified. The lowest values of resistivity were evaluated at temperatures of 50 ° C and the resistivity increased with decreasing temperature. The effect of humidity on the resistivity was then verified. Reference samples and samples with a smaller proportion of graphite powder showed larger differences in resistivities with increasing humidity. The samples above the percolation threshold were not much affected by increasing humidity. Finally, the effect of loading on the resistivity of the samples was verified. Almost all samples with increasing compressive stress showed an increasing value of resistivity.

The effect of appication of fine organic fibers to cement composites
Kavka, Lukáš ; Hela, Rudolf (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This bachelor thesis describes the effect of using fine organic fibers in cement composites. In the theoretical part of bachelor thesis a composite material was defined and his individual components were described. Then was created a research of information about organic fibers focused on natural fibers. The basic parameters of cellulosic fibers and polypropylene fibers, the effect on the properties of cement composites and their application in practice were described. In the practical part there were created a reference concrete and 3 types of concrete with the addition of various types of organic fibers. The influence of fiber addition on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete were investigated. Another task of practical part was monitored the resistance of cellulose fibers in acidic and alkaline media in which the tested fibers were deposited. The development of pH solutions was examined over time.
