Abstract
The mechanical strength properties of ferrocement wre investigated with reference to uniaxial tension, compression and flexure from deflection, cracking and ultimate strength. The effects of impregnation of polymer and that of incorporation of fly-ash in ferrocement on the mechanical properties wre also studied. The data were further analysed in relation to specific surface and re-inforcement factor. The failure modes of impregnated ad unimpregnated ferrocement are also discussed.
