To provide a molded body which has high strength, high ductility, and excellent dimensional stability while maintaining incombustibility and fire resistance. A molded body formed from a curable composition containing (A) at least one aluminosilicate source, (B) an alkali metal hydroxide, (C) a calcium ion source, and (D) an alkali resistant fiber, wherein the aluminosilicate source (A) has an SiOcontent of 50% by mass or more based on a total mass of the aluminosilicate source (A), an amorphous ratio of 50% by mass or higher, and an average particle diameter of 50 &#x3bc;m or smaller, and comprises an aluminosilicate source having an average particle diameter of 10 &#x3bc;m or smaller in an amount of 30% by mass or more based on the total mass of the aluminosilicate source (A).

Molded body formed from curable composition

A concrete tile comprising a tile body, the tile body having an upper face hardened through non-mold shaping, a lower face hardened through mold shaping, and a side surface that includes a cut end face in at least one side of the tile body, wherein the tile body contains alkali-resistant fiber in an entire thickness thereof in a state substantially free of fiber-containing granular bodies; the alkali-resistant fibers comprise at least one member selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol-based fibers, polyethylene fibers, polypropylene fibers, acrylic fibers, and aramid fibers; and a flexural strength of a 30 mm&#xd7;150 mm sized cut piece of the tile body is not less than 6 N/mm.
