Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022 Fibre-reinforced concrete is increasingly employed in construction in recent times. Adding steel fibres to self-compacting concrete (SCC) increases the latter’s strength and toughness but does not confer the SCC mix with the desired flow properties. When

Effects of steel fibre-aggregate interaction on mechanical behaviour of steel fibre reinforced concrete [PDF]
Advances in Applied Ceramics, 2017 ABSTRACTThis work investigated the effects of fibre type, dosage and maximum aggregate size on the mechanical behaviour of concrete reinforced with steel fibres. Hooked-end steel fibres with 50 and 60 mm length and aspect ratios (length/diameter) of 45, 65 and 80 were used with maximum sizes of coarse aggregate of 10 and 20 mm. The same mix proportions

Effects of Steel Fibres on Fresh and Hardened Properties of Cement Concrete
Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports, 2020 Concrete possesses distinct features that make it widely acceptable for use across the globe; however, along with its obvious benefits, it has numerous drawbacks i.e., it is brittle in nature and its production causes an adverse impact on the environment.

Experimental data about mechanical behaviour during compression tests for various matted fibres [PDF]
, 2005 A specific experimental device has been set up to test compressive mechanical behaviour of an assembly of fibres. Simple compression, as well as cyclic loading experiments and relaxation tests were performed. The experimental set up also allows to record

Ultra-high performance concrete reinforced with macro fibres recycled from waste GFRP composites
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023 Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a promising cementitious composite to produce lightweight and high-performance structures. Steel fibres are an essential constituting material of UHPC to prevent the brittle failure of UHPC, but the high cost ...

Post-cracking tensile behaviour of steel-fibre-reinforced roller-compacted-concrete for FE modelling and design purposes [PDF]
, 2017 Fracture of steel-fibre-reinforced-concrete occurs mostly in the form of a smeared crack band undergoing progressive microcracking. For FE modelling and design purposes, this crack band could be characterised by a stress-strain (σ-ε) relationship.

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2021 The durability and lifespan of concrete structures are significantly affected by the corrosion of steel reinforcement. Though epoxy-coated steel reinforcement is being used for practical applications, slight damage in the coating during the construction ...
