Some Studies on Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete
نویسنده
چکیده
Fibres are generally used as resistance of cracking and strengthening of concrete. In this project, I am going to carry out test on steel fibre reinforced concrete to check the influence of fibres on flexural strength of concrete. According to various research papers, it has been found that steel fibres give the maximum strength in comparison to glass and polypropylene fibres. Hence, in this project I was interested in finding out the optimum quantity of steel fibres required to achieve the maximum flexural strength for M25 grade concrete. From the exhaustive and extensive experimental work it was found that with increase in steel fibre content in concrete there was a tremendous increase in Flexural strength. Even at 1 % steel fibre content flexural strength of 6.46 N/mm was observed against flexural strength 5.36 N/mm at 0% hence increase of 1.1% flexural strength was obtained. Keywords—Fiber Reinforced Concrete, flexural Strength, fiber, Slump, Grade of Concrete.

RELATIONSHIP OF TENSILE STRENGTH OF STEEL FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE BASED ON GENETIC PROGRAMMING
Estimating mechanical properties of concrete before designing reinforced concrete structures is among the design requirements. Steel fibers have a considerable effect on the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete, particularly its tensile strength. So far, numerous studies have been done to estimate the relationship between tensile strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) and ot...

In the present study, a new method for retrofitting reinforced concrete beam is introduced in which steel-concrete composite jackets containing steel fiber is used. For this purpose, 75% of the peripheral surface of reinforced concrete beams was initially reinforced using steel plates and bolts, and steel fiber reinforced concrete was used between the steel plates and the peripheral surfaces of...

In this paper, modeling of high speed projectiles with different nose shapes, penetrating into steel fiber reinforced concrete is investigated. This is a novel study because it considers the length to diameter ratio of steel fiber as well as projectile length to diameter ratio and volume fraction of fiber used in concrete matrix on the impact resistance of steel fiber reinforced concrete fibers...
متن کاملMechanical Behavior of Hybrid Fiber Reinforced High Strength Concrete with Graded Fibers
Brittleness, which was the inherent weakness in High Strength Concrete (HSC), can be avoided by reinforcing the concrete with discontinuous fibers. Reinforcing HSC with more than one fiber is advantageous in an overall improvement of the mechanical performance of the composite. In this experimental study, Hybrid Fiber Reinforced High Strength Concrete (HyFR-HSC) mixes were formed by blending si...
متن کاملOptimizing of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Mix Design
Cementitious matrices are the fragile materials that possess a low tensile strength. The addition of fibers randomly distributed in these matrices improves their resistance to cracking, substantially. However, the incorporation of fibers into a plain concrete disrupts the granular skeleton and quickly causes problems of mixing as a result of the loss of mixture workability that will be translat...
متن کاملStepwise Regression for shear capacity assessment of steel fiber reinforced concrete beams
The addition of steel fibers into concrete improves the postcracking tensile strength of hardened concrete and hence significantly enhances the shear strength of reinforced concrete reinforced concrete beams. However, developing an accurate model for predicting the shear strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams is a challenging task as there are several parameters such as the co...
