Abstract. Laboratory bending tests of concrete and steel-fiber-concrete prisms were carried out. The concrete matrix for all prisms is made of a concrete mixture of the same composition with a coarse aggregate size up to 10 mm and a water-cement ratio that allows correct mixing of the ready mixture with fiber, so that the latter is evenly distributed over the sample volume. Fiber reinforcement is 1% for all three types of fiber, a fiber made of the same steel with an ultimate strength of 1335 MPa, fiber length 50 mm, diameter 1 mm is used. Fibers differ only in shape, which makes it possible to compare test results across series without correction factors. Concrete samples without fiber are considered as control samples. As a result of laboratory tests, data sets were obtained and analyzed, which are presented in the form of diagrams. Different types of steel fiber show different increases in the load at the beginning of cracking and load-bearing capacity. The most profitable from this point of view is the addition of anchor fiber to concrete, the least – wave fiber. However, the presence of any of the considered steel fibers in the mixture significantly increases the load-bearing capacity of the sample. In addition, the type of destruction of such a sample changes from brittle to viscous. We also studied the deformability of samples with different fiber reinforcement and plotted the dependence of the relative longitudinal strain on the load. Before the crack formation begins, there is a direct proportionality between the load and the strain with the appearance of cracks, the slope of the graphs changes sharply. When the load-bearing capacity is lost, steel fiber-reinforced concrete samples are restrained from final destruction. The use of steel fiber in concrete on average increases the crack resistance by 40%, and the load-bearing capacity by 64%. Compared with samples without fiber reinforcement, samples with anchor fiber show an increase in load-bearing capacity by 89%, and crack resistance by 61%. When using flattened fiber, these values are 56% and 32%, and for wave fiber – 47% and 25%, respectively. The use of steel fiber in the manufacture of concrete mix avoids the brittle nature of destruction.

The load-bearing capacity and fracture pattern of direct inlay-retained FRC FDPs with two different cross-sectional designs of the ponticwere tested. The aim of the study was to evaluate a new fibre disposition. Two types of composites, Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative and Filtek Z250 (3M/ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA), and one braided polyethylene fibre, Construct (Kerr, USA) were used. The results of the study suggested that the new tested disposition of the fibres prevented in some extend the delamination of the composite on buccal and facial sides of the pontic and increased the load-bearing capacity of the bridges.

Abstract This article proposed an innovative composite sandwich structure reinforced with trapezoidal latticed webs with angles of 45°, 60° and 75°. Four specimens were conducted according to quasi-static compression methods to investigate the compressive behavior of the novel composite structures. The experimental results indicated that the specimen with 45° trapezoidal latticed webs showed the most excellent energy absorption ability, which was about 2.5 times of the structures with vertical latticed webs. Compared to the traditional composite sandwich structure, the elastic displacement and ultimate load-bearing capacity of the specimen with 45° trapezoidal latticed webs were increased by 624.1 and 439.8%, respectively. Numerical analysis of the composite sandwich structures was carried out by using a nonlinear explicit finite element (FE) software ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The influence of the thickness of face sheets, lattice webs and foam density on the elastic ultimate load-bearing capacity, the elastic displacement and initial stiffness was analyzed. This innovative composite bumper device for bridge pier protection against ship collision was simulated to verify its performance. The results showed that the peak impact force of the composite anti-collision device with 45° trapezoidal latticed webs would be reduced by 17.3%, and the time duration will be prolonged by about 31.1%.
