The article describes the development of rapid-hardening, high-strength fiber-reinforced concrete with increased impact resistance for protective structures. Fiber-reinforced concretes with the addition of Portland cement CEM II/A-LL 42.5 R (C = 390 kg/m3) with polymer structural fiber PMS 1/60 with the addition of PCE were studied. The addition of PMS 1/60 fiber to concrete increases impact strength by 2.8-3.7 times and achieves a strength class of C 40/50. Fiber-reinforced concretes with the addition of Portland cement CEM II/A-S 52.5 R were studied.

One of prospective construction materials, which allow compensating such concrete lack as low tensile strength and high destruction fragility, is continuously reinforced concrete – fibrous concrete.

This review is accumulating the information about biodamages and protection of textile materials and fibers. The contributors made a special emphasis on the problems of cotton fiber biodamaging, bast fiber biodamaging, biodamaging of artificial fibers, wool fiber biodamaging, change of structure and properties of wool fibers by microorganisms, and on the methods of textile material protection against damaging by microorganisms. The authors are also discussing the mechanism the natural polymer materials degradation.
