Summary This new edition of the book helps the user to correctly use fiber-reinforced concrete as a building material in accordance with its properties in order to create a long-lasting building for the client at low cost. Fiber-reinforced concrete as an extension of concrete offers considerable advantages for building practice, which, based on the material properties, enable a very long service life. Fiber-reinforced concrete is particularly suitable for an aggressive environment such as salt exposure, since corrosion can be completely avoided. Particular attention is also paid to the shrinkage cracks that occur in the concrete and how they can be and how these can be avoided when using fibers. This book is a translation of the original German 3rd edition Faserbeton by Bernhard Wietek, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors. The author Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Bernhard Wietek is a civil engineer for civil engineering and owns an engineering office, he is involved in the education of civil engineers in many ways
