In this paper, material property of fiber reinforced concrete(FRC) according to the steel fiber, glass fiber and carbon fiber blended ratio. The fiber reinforced concretes are increased mechanical strength, because the fibers are dispersed with randomly direction and disturb crack progression in concretes. Adhesive fracture is occurred slowly at interface between fiber and concrete, and the fracture energy is absorbed due to softening phenomenon.

An experimental investigation of mechanical properties of jute fiber-reinforced concrete (JFRC) has been reported for making a suitable construction material in terms of fiber reinforcement. Two jute fiber reinforced concretes, called jute fiber reinforced normal strength concrete (JFRNSC) and jute fiber-reinforced high-fluidity concrete (JFRHFC), were tested in compression, flexure and splitting tension. Compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strengths of specimens were investigated to four levels of jute fiber contents by volume fraction. From the test results, Jute fiber can be successfully used for normal strength concrete (NSC) and high-fluidity concrete (HFC). Particularly, HFC with jute fibers shows relatively higher improvement of strength property than that of normal strength concrete.

Fiber reinforced concretes exhibit higher tensile strength depending on the percent and type of the fiber used. These concretes are used to reduce cracks and improve concrete behavior. The use of these fibers increases the production costs and reduces the compressive strength to a certain extent. Therefore, the use of fiber reinforced concrete in regions where higher tensile strength is required can cut costs and improve the overall structural strength. The behavior of fiber reinforced concrete and normal concrete adjacent to each other was investigated in the present study. The concrete used was self-compacting and did not require vibration. The samples had 0, 1, 2 and 4 wt% polypropylene fibers. 15 cm sample cubes were subjected to uniaxial loads to investigate their compressive strength. Fiber Self-Compacting Concrete was poured in the mold up to 0, 30, 50, 70 and 100 percent of the mold height, and then Self-Compacting Concrete without fiber was added to the empty section of that mold. In order to investigate concrete behavior under bending moment, concrete beam samples with similar conditions were prepared and subjected to the three-point bending flexural test. The results revealed that normal Self-Compacting Concrete and Fiber Self-Compacting Concrete may be used in adjacent to each other in structures and structural members. Moreover, no separation was observed at the interface of Fiber Self-Compacting Concrete and Self-Compacting Concrete, either in the cubic samples under compression or in the concrete beams under bending moment.

This paper presents experimental and analytical results of glass fiber-reinforced concrete (GFRC) and polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete (PERC) to investigate the relationship between tensile strength and compressive strength based on the split cylinder test (ASTM C496) and compressive strength test (ASTM C39). Experimental studies were performed on cylinder specimens having 150 mm in diameter an 300 mm in height with two different fiber contents (1.0 and 1.5％ by volume fraction) at ages of 7, 28 and 90 days. A total of 90 cylinder specimens were tested including specimens made of the plain concrete. The experimental data have been used to obtain the relationship between tensile strength and compressive strength. A representative equation is proposed for the relationship between tensile strength and compressive strength of fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) including glass and polypropylene fibers. There is a good agreement between the average experimental results and those calculated values from the proposed equation.

The brittleness of concrete can be overcome by fiber reinforcement that controls the crack mechanisms of concrete. Corrosion-related durability issues can be prevented by synthetic fibers (SFs), while macro synthetic fibers have proven to be particularly effective to provide ductility and toughness after cracks. This experimental study has been performed to investigate the comparative flexural and mechanical behavior of four different macro-synthetic fiber-reinforced concretes (SFRCs). Two polyamide fibers (SF1 and SF2) with different aspect ratios and two different polypropylene fiber types (SF3 and SF4) were used in production of SFRCs. Four different SFRCs and reference concrete were compared for their influences on the toughness, compressive strength, elastic modulus, flexural strength, residual strength and splitting tensile strength. The outcomes of the study reveal that the flowability of reference mixture decreases after addition of SFs and the air voids of all SFRC mixtures increased with the addition of macro-synthetic fibers except SFRC2 mixture whose air content is the same as the reference mixture. The results also revealed that with the inclusion of SFs, 11.34% reduction in the cube compressive strength was noted for SFRC4 based on that of reference specimens and both reference concrete and SFRC exhibited nearly similar cylindrical compressive strength. Results illustrated that SFRC1 and SFRC4 mixtures consistently provide the highest and lowest flexural toughness values of 36.4 joule and 27.7 joule respectively. The toughness values of SFRC3 and SFRC4 are very near to each other.

The recently developed confinement-shear lattice model is reviewed. The procedure for generating aggregates in a given specimen and the constitutive model for on aggregate-cement strut are shown. It is suggested that the model can easily be extended for early age concretes and fiber reinforced concretes. The state-of-art of the extension and the general procedure of the extension are given in this paper.

Recently, the effects of high temperature and fiber content on the residual mechnical properties of high-strength concrete were experimentally investigated. In this paper, residual mechanical properties of concrete with water to cement (w/c) ratios of 55%, 42% and 32% exposed to high temperature are compared with those obtained in fiber reinforced concretes of similar characteristics with the ranging of 0,05% to 0,20% polypropylene (PP) fibers by volume of concrete, and considered factors include pre-load levels (20% and 40% of the maximum load at room temperature). Outbreak time and water contents were tested and were determined the compressive strength. In the result, it is showed that to prevent the explosive spalling of 50MPa grade concretes exposed to high temperature need more than 0.05Vol.% PP fibers. Also, the cross-sectional area of PP fiber can influence on the residual mechanical properties and the spalling tendency of fiber reinforced concrete exposed to high temperature. Especially, the external loading increases not only the residual mechanical properties of concrete but also the risk of spalling and the brittle tendency.

본 연구에서는 강섬유보강 콘크리트와 L형강을 사용한 합성 복근보의 구조성능을 평가하고자 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 총 6개의 강섬유보강 합성 복근보 실험체를 제작하였으며, 모든 실험체는 혼입률 1%의 강섬유 보강이 이루어졌다. 실험체의 주요 변수는 전단보강상세와 전단경간비이며, 실험에서 구한 강도특성을 대상으로 설계강도 산정식의 적용성을 분석하였다. 또한 실험체의 강성, 연성능력 및 에너지소산능력 등의 구조성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과에 의하면 합성보의 휨 및 전단강도 산정식은 양호한 수준으로 실험체의 강도특성을 예측할 수 있었다. 한편 실험체에 적용한 전단보강상세에 따라 최대강도, 연성능력, 에너지흡수능력이 다르게 나타나고 있으며, 트러스 형태의 대각부재에 의한 전단보강상세가 가장 우수한 구조성능을 보여 주었다.

본 연구는 자동차 파쇄 잔재물의 활용성을 알아보고자 폐차과정에서 발생되는 폐나일론 섬유를 아스팔트 콘크리트에 첨가하여 일반 아스팔트 콘크리트와의 피로수명 비교, 경제성 분석을 실시하였다. 4점 휨 피로 시험을 수행한 결과 일반 아스팔트 대비 피로수명이 10% 향상되었으며, 이를 통해 경제성 분석을 실시하여 35년간 약 5.4억 원의 유지보수비용에 대한 비용 절감을 가져 오는 것으로 확인 되었다. 폐나일론 섬유 보강 아스팔트는 비용절감 효과와 더불어 폐자재의 환경처리비용 이점과 활용성 측면에서의 친환경적 공법으로 생애주기비용분석에서보다 더 큰 경제적, 사회적 효과가 발생 할 것으로 판단된다.

The compressive and flexural properties of hemp fiber reinforced concretes (FRC) were examined in this paper. Natural hemp fiber was mixed using dry and wet mixing methods to fabricate the FRC. Mechanical properties of the FRC were investigated. The main factors affecting compressive and flexural properties of the FRC materials were evaluated with an orthogonal test design. Fiber content by weight has the largest effect. The method for casting hemp FRC has been optimised. Under the optimum conditions, compressive strength increased by 4 %, flexural strength increased by 9 %, flexural toughness increased by 144 %, and flexural toughness index increased by 214 %.
