The tests were conducted with different doses of glass fibres on the prism&nbsp;samples with size of 40 x 40 x 160 mm, which were fitted with glass contacts at their ends. The&nbsp;cement paste was modified by glass fibres in amount 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 % by weight of cement&nbsp;(replacement of cement). The effect of glass fibres on the bulk density, consistency, shrinkage and&nbsp;weight change was investigated. The achieved results have shown a positive effect of glass fibres on&nbsp;the shrinkage of cement composites, especially in the first days of measurement. The most significant&nbsp;impact was reflected in the higher dose of glass fibres - 4 and 5 %.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Czech Journal of Civil Engineering}, author={Gregorová, Valéria and Štefunková, Zuzana}, year={2016}, month={Jun.}, pages={38-43} }
