Steel fiber-reinforced reactive powder concrete (SFRPC) has good mechanical properties and is thus useful for engineering applications. Generally, the fibers in SFRPC are randomly distributed. To study the effects of the amount, length, and orientation of steel fibers on the shear strength of SFRPC...
