Constructive applications of composite gypsum reinforced with Typha Latifolia fibres

Abstract

The present research analyses the possibility to reinforce gypsum using enea fibres (Typha Latifolia) creating a compound material in wich the fibres contribute to increase mechanical resistance, producing as well a reduction of the weight and a possible regulation of the set time.
