Abstract :In the 1940’s, potential of glass as a construction material was realized and improvement continued with the addition of zirconium dioxide in 1960`s for harsh alkali conditions. To enhance durability of materials, new generation of glass fibres directed to improvement process. In this way, glass fibre reinforced concrete insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GFRC); was started to produce for the satisfaction of different demands. Scientific studies and tests on the GFRC have shown that the physical and mechanical properties of the GFRC change depending on the quality of the materials and the accuracy of the production methods. GFRC can be used wherever a light, strong, fire resistant, weather resistant, attractive, impermeable material is needed. As technology advances, it is possibly expected to build the whole building and complex freeform with low cost. In recent years, the effect of glass fibres in hybrid mixtures has been investigated for high-performance concrete insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HPC);, an emerging technology termed, which has become popular in the construction industry.
