Fibre-reinforced concrete as an aspect of green construction technology by Radmila Sinđić Grebović, Marko Grebović

“…Moreover, the investigation of the correlation between compressive and tensile strength indicates a significant increase in the tensile strength of fibre-reinforced concrete. The safety factor against failure of fibre-reinforced beams on the shear strength for mixtures with different amounts of fibres increased approximately two times with the growth of content steel fibre from 0,25 to 1,50 %. …”

The Expansion of the Fibre Optic Network in Germany: Switching the Lights to Green by Cordelius Ilgmann

“…The federal government thereby implements a strategic decision that states like Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia have made before: the basis for a sustainable digital infrastructure is a comprehensive optic fibre network to the building/home (FTTB/FTTH). As to state subsidies, the so-called “Betreibermodell” offers an efficient policy alternative to the current predominantly used system of state subsidies. …”
