Mechanical Properties of Concrete with Steel and Polypropylene Fibres at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesFibers, 2019
Addition of steel fibres to concrete is known to have a significant positive influence on the mechanical properties of concrete. Micro polypropylene (PP) fibres are added to concrete to improve its performance under thermal loads such as in case of fire ...

Distribution and orientation of steel fibres in steel fibre reinforced concrete [PDF]

open access: yesFouth International Conference on Advances in Civil, Structural and Construction Engineering - CSCE 2016, 2016
The use of fibres to reinforce brittle materials for better performance has been employed since time immemorial. Therefore, inclusion of steel fibres in concrete has always improved the post-cracking strength and concrete ductility to a large extent while full potential of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) is still yet to be exploited in practice.

Effect of steel and PVA fibres as monofibres on strength and cracking properties of fly ash and slag-based alkali-activated concrete

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Applied Science, 2023
The present paper explores the experimental study on the influence of steel fibres (SF) and polyvinyl alcohol fibres (PVAF) as monofibres on the strength, and cracking properties of alkali-activated concrete with varying ground granulated blast furnace ...

Evaluation of the Tensile Characteristics and Bond Behaviour of Steel Fibre-Reinforced Concrete: An Overview

open access: yesFibers, 2022
Conventional concrete is a common building material that is often ridden with cracks due to its low tensile strength. Moreover, it has relatively low shear strength and, unless reinforced, undergoes brittle failure under tension and shear. Thus, concrete

A Statistical Model of Fibre Distribution in a Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2021
The aim of the research was to create a model of steel fibre distribution in a Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete space using statistical probability means. The model was created in order to better understand the behaviour of the composite under operating conditions.

Initial Parameters Affecting the Multilayer Doubly Curved Concrete Shell Roof

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Doubly curved shell roof structures have been widely studied and applied in civil buildings, because of their compressive capacity. As a spatial structure, it should increase the space, reduce the thickness of the shell, and create the architecture for ...
