The influence of basalt fiber and the type of its laying on the strength properties of a composite material based on fresh ice has been studied. Regularities of damage accumulation in ice composite material are analyzed using the acoustic emission method. The experiments used massive samples obtained under natural conditions by layer-by-layer freezing. It is shown that with a doubling of the filler content, the bending strength of the ice composite increases by 1.5 times, and its durability increases. The scale effect of strength is discussed.
