The purpose of this thesis is evaluate the mechanical behavior of cementitious matrix composites reinforced with sisal fibers and mauve, and correlate the material’s behavior with variations in the fibers types and lengths. The base material used in the manufacture of the composite was cement, sand, water and sisal fibers and mauve. It was used the trace 1: 2: 0,5 (cement, sand and water, respectively), with the addition of 1% in mass of fibers. The fibers had been previously cut in the length of 15mm e 25mm and manually added to the mix. The correlations of the composites were obtained by bending tests in three points, following the RILEM 49 norm. The micro-structural characteristics were evaluated with electron microscopy. The results show that the insertion of fibers in the cementitious matrix reduces the maximum force applied to the specimen, even tough there was an increase in the material toughness and pseudo-ductility after the appearance of the first fissure. The longest fibers demonstrated better performance with a small highlight on the mauve fibers.
