Shear and Flexural Behavior of Flat Slabs Casted with Polyolefin Fiber-Reinforced Concrete

This paper presents the influence of polyolefin fiber on flexural and shear attitude flat slabs. Three slab sets (80 cm × 80 cm) were tested, each with a thickness 10 cm. In first set (S1), effect content behavior was considered. Therefore, four specimens cast, one which considered as control specimen no content, while other three included fibers at 0.5, 1, 1.5 percent total concrete volume. The second series experiments studied slabs (S2) an opening 15 contained nil polyolefin, 1% polyolefin. third (S3), consideration taken for 0 Polyolefin to realize slab. increase in from 1.5% (for 1) will decrease deflection 4.5 mm 2.3 mm, average 3.58 is close specimen. dimensional models tested simulated numerically via ABAQUS software program. ratio maximum between experimental numerical outcomes varied range 1.01 1.28, 1.14.
