Strain-Hardening Cementitious Composites (SHCC) have demonstrated superior mechanical performance, which could potentially solve the challenges of adding reinforcement in 3D-printed concrete structures. This study investigates the tensile performance of 3D-printed SHCC. Preliminary studies are condu...
