In conventional concrete, micro-cracks develop before structure is loaded because of drying
shrinkage and other causes of volume change. When the structure is loaded, the micro …

Fiber reinforced concrete has been successfully used in slabs on grade, shotcrete,
architectural panels, precast products, offshore structures, structures in seismic regions, thin …

Abstract Currently, more than 2.5 million tires are discarded each year in Bogotá, Colombia,
and 1.2 million of them are not properly disposed, producing a huge environmental problem …

Steel fibre reinforced concrete is finding extensive use in field applications. The mechanism
of delaying and arresting crack propagation by the fibres can be made use in passive …

Fibers are generally used as resistance of cracking and strengthening of concrete. In this
project, I am going to carry out test on steel fiber reinforced concrete to check the influence of …

The huge quantity of concrete is consumed by the construction industry all over the world,
probably second largest after water. In India, the conventional concrete is produced by using …

In this investigation a series of compression tests were conducted on 150mm, cube and
150mm x 300mm, cylindrical specimens using a modified test method that gave the …

This research was carried out to study the behaviour of concrete, specifically compressive
and flexural strength, by incorporating recycled soft drink aluminium can as fibre …

En Colombia, el uso del concreto reforzado con fibras de acero (CRFA) es muy limitado,
debido a que en el país no existe suficiente evidencia experimental y requisitos …

This paper explores the effects of adding steel fibres to high-strength reinforced concrete
columns and in particular only to the cover of the columns. An experimental program was …
