SIFCON (Slurry Infiltrated Fibre Concrete) is a unique construction material with high strength and ductility due to a phenomenon called "fiber-lock". It consists of a cementitious slurry matrix reinforced with steel fibers. The slurry has no coarse aggregates but a high cement and fine sand content. Factors like slurry strength, fiber volume and alignment affect its properties. SIFCON has excellent durability and energy absorption and is used in applications like pavements, bridges, and blast-resistant structures.
