1. In a method of making a glass reinforced cementitious material comprising the steps of adding water to a mixture of inorganic alkaline cementitious binder and glass reinforcement fibers, mixing the components, and allowing the mixture to harden and cure, the improvement which comprises inhibiting degradation of the glass reinforcement fibers in the alkaline environment of the cementitious binder by adding to the mixture of inorganic cementitious binder and glass reinforcement fibers, from one half to fifty percent by weight based upon the weight of the glass reinforcement fibers of finely divided particles of a water soluble salt of a metal selected from the group consisting of barium, lithium and zinc.

Abstract
A cement mix suitable for mixing with water to form a glass reinforced cementitious material for use in high tensile strength applications such as surface bonding of concrete blocks or the like or in the formation of concrete products and characterized by a resistance to degradation of the glass reinforcement by the alkaline environment of the cementitious material. The cement mix comprises a dry mixture of an inorganic cementitious binder containing at least one reactive alkali compound, glass reinforcement fibers, and a water soluble salt of a metal selected from the group consisting of barium, lithium, and zinc.

6. In a method of making a glass reinforced cementitious material comprising the steps of adding water to a mixture of inorganic alkaline cementitious binder and glass reinforcement fibers, mixing the components, and allowing the mixture to harden and cure, the improvement which comprises using ordinary alkali susceptible E-glass for the reinforcement fibers and inhibiting degradation of the alkali susceptible glass reinforcement fibers in the alkaline environment of the cementitious binder by adding to the mixture of inorganic cementitious binder and glass reinforcement fibers, from one half to fifty percent by weight based upon the weight of the glass reinforcement fibers of finely divided particles of a water soluble salt of a metal selected from the group consisting of barium, lithium and zinc.
- 7. In a method of making a surface bonded wall comprising the steps of applying a coating of a surface bonding cement over at least one surface of an assembly of stacked concrete blocks and allowing the cement coating to harden and cure and serve to bond the blocks together without the necessity of mortar between the blocks, and wherein said coating of surface bonding cement comprises an inorganic cementitious binder containing at least one reactive alkali compound, glass reinforcement fibers distributed throughout the binder, and fine sand aggregate also distributed throughout the binder, the improvement which comprises inhibiting degradation of the glass reinforcement fibers in the alkaline environment of the cementitious binder by adding to the mixture of inorganic cementitious binder, glass reinforcement fibers, and fine sand aggregate, from one half to fifty percent by weight based upon the weight of the glass reinforcement fibers of finely divided particles of a water soluble salt of a metal selected from the group consisting of barium, lithium and zinc.
