Abstract
Mechanical properties of hybrid fibre-reinforced concrete (HFRC) are studied and the role of constituent fibres on overall response of HFRC is investigated. HFRC was produced using different proportions of hooked-ended steel, crimped polypropylene and plain Kevlar fibres with a total fibre volume fraction of 1·2% and 1·4%. The test results indicate that the incorporation of hybrid fibres in concrete improve the compressive and tensile strengths moderately and toughness considerably. Analytical models are developed to quantify the effect of individual fibres on compressive and tensile strengths, stress–strain curves and flexural toughness ratio of HFRC in terms of a comprehensive fibre reinforcing index. The proposed models show a marked improvement over existing models. The existing models are for single (steel) fibres only, whereas the proposed models are general and applicable to HFRC containing any number of fibres.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
