Study on Mechanical Properties of Iron Wire Cement Mortar

Through the uniaxial compression test, the mechanical properties of different placements of iron wire cement mortar, e.g. compressive strength and elastic modulus, were studied, and the mass ratios of cement, sands and water influencing the mechanical properties were put forward, which provided the experimental results for reference for the wide use of the iron wire cement mortar material. From the study it is gained that: (1) The best placement of the iron wires in cement mortar is horizontal. (2) The best mass ratio of the cement, sands and water is 1:4.70:0.81.
