Abstract

This invention is a fiber reinforced cement composition comprising the following raw materials: a hydraulic inorganic material, a siliceous material, and a woody reinforcement wherein the siliceous material is a mixture of an average particle size of not less than 15 um and not more than 50 um which is burned ash of coal and/or rhyolite and an average particle size of not less than 1 um and not more than 15 um which is burned ash of coal and/or rhyolite.
