| Abstract Tests on fibrocement discs were carried out to measure tensile stress- strain relationship including testing wide ranges of matrix strength. Equations were proposed for calculating tensile strength based on the present test results and other results in the literature. A trilinear idealized model was proposed for calculating tensile stress – strain response of Ferro cement. The model was found to be accurate especially for higher strength Ferro cement. Later an analysis was carried out for calculating the load-deflection relationship of Ferro cement beams based on moment – curvature relationship and bending theory of elastic beam. The analysis which based on the proposed tensile model was found to be accurate for Ferro cement beams and slab strips provided that the span / depth ratio less than 22.
