Acoustic emission behavior of steel fibre reinforced concrete under bending

Monitoring Fracture of Steel Corroded Reinforced Concrete Members under Flexure by Acoustic Emission Technique

Acoustic emission (AE) technique is used for monitoring and evaluating the influence of corrosion on the structural behaviour of steel reinforced concrete (RC) beams under three-point flexure test. In this study, steel corrosion was accelerated by electro-chemical method utilising a direct current (DC) power supply and 5% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution. The steel corrosion that was induced int...

Punching shear strength of steel fibre reinforced concrete slabs

The ultimate strength of reinforced concrete slabs is frequently governed by the punching shear capacity, which may be increased with addition of traditional fitments such as reinforcing steel, headed studs or shear heads. In addition to these traditional methods of strengthening against punching, steel fibre reinforcement has proved to be an effective and viable alternative. The addition of fi...

Strength and Permeability Characteristics of Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete

The results reported in this paper are the part of an extensive laboratory investigation undertaken to study the effects of fibre parameters on the permeability and strength characteristics of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC). The effect of varying fibre content and curing age on the water permeability, compressive and split tensile strengths of SFRC was investigated using straight steel ...
