Influence of Tire-Recycled Steel Fibers on Strength and Flexural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete
Tire production is increasing every year due to the increase in vehicle sales. The generation and disposal of waste are inherent to life itself and have presented very serious problems to the human community in China.

Comparison of Hook and Straight Steel Fibers Addition on Malaysian Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer Concrete on the Slump, Density, Water Absorption and Mechanical Properties. [PDF]
Geopolymer concrete has the potential to replace ordinary Portland cement which can reduce carbon dioxide emission to the environment. The addition of different amounts of steel fibers, as well as different types of end-shape fibers, could alter the ...

Abstract This work presents a novel numerical model based on the use of coupling finite elements to simulate the behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) with a discrete and explicit representation of steel fibers. The material is described as a composite made up by three phases: concrete, discrete discontinuous fibers and fiber-matrix ...

Effect of Steel Fibers on the Hysteretic Performance of Concrete Beams with Steel Reinforcement-Tests and Analysis. [PDF]
The use of fibers as mass reinforcement to delay cracking and to improve the strength and the post-cracking performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been well documented. However, issues of common engineering practice about the beneficial effect
