The interaction between short fibres and concrete in the post-cracking phase influences crack spacing and width in the composite. In order to perform analysis of deformation of a composite and the fibre displacement at the crack, single fibre was examined. A two-fibre model considering the distribution of fibre length and incomplete bonding was developed. Numerical analysis reveals that two-fibre model analysis is believed to be more accurate than that obtained from the single-fibre analysis. Comparing the solution of the single-fibre and two-fibre system shows that the latter gives a greater fibre displacement at the crack. The study was performed in the Department of Structural Engineering, year 2009/2010.
