To increase the efficiency of steel-fiber concrete production, the existing technological operations that could reduce the costs should be optimized. This process requires scientific research and analysis of the existing results to improve the efficiency of each production stage. One of the important stages in the steel-fiber concrete production is steam curing, which is responsible for forming the cementitious matrix structure. To increase the efficiency of this production stage, a study was conducted to develop the steam curing conditions according to the rules of steel-fiber concrete structure formation and the methods of improving durability indicators. Tests on several steel-fiber concrete compositions were conducted, and the relations between its thermal conductivity and the reinforcement coefficient of concrete were revealed. The results of the tests let us conclude that with the increase of the reinforcement coefficient its thermal capacity decreases. The temperature gradient charts along the cross-section of samples with different cement/sand ratios and reinforcement coefficients were built. According to the data obtained, the optimal industrial conditions of steam curing were discovered. The dependences determining the increase of mechanical performance of steel-fiber concrete due to the formation of prestressed fiber structure in the material were revealed.

The paper considers the effects of high temperatures in case of fire on the change in impermeability of steel fiber reinforced concrete having a high-strength cement-sand matrix and various content of fiber of different types, sizes, and strength. It is shown that in the temperature range from 20° to 1100° C in the diagram “Heating temperature - impermeability class», the matrix and steel fiber concrete(SFC) have a S-shaped character, and in case of heating temperature of over 100 °C, there comes a distinct decrease in impermeability.

The concrete frame with bottom frame structure bear the load from the upper floors, roofing and brick walls, internal force is quite large, so the designed section size of frame beams is big, sometimes even the clear height of the building can't meet the architectural requirements; And more reinforcement, construction of concrete are difficult to pound, even vibration bar are difficult to insert into the beam, seriously influence the construction quality of reinforced concrete and the frame structure quality can't t be assured. This article introduces the design and application of steel fiber reinforced concrete in the bottom frame through the practical engineering examples. Steel fiber concrete can enhance the tensile and shear strength, and make it has good resistance to crack and toughness. As a result of the steel fiber concrete, the bearing capacity of bottom frame is greatly improved, and the problem in the project is solved.

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 experimental results show that the deck of the bridge displays obviously orthotropic features; shear nails with reasonable density can increase the binding capability of each part of deck pavement and overall mechanical performance. The results of fatigue test on the two groups of specimen indicate that the composite deck pavement added with the shear nails and the transition layer of steel fiber concrete has no sign of fatigue failure after 8.3 million fatigue loading tests, and its fatigue resisting property is obviously better than the deck pavement where the asphalt concrete is directly paved on the surface of deck, that is to say the service life of the deck pavement can be extended by the use of steel fiber concrete layer.

Experimental studies of the stress-strain state of reinforced concrete and fiber-reinforced concrete beams under short-term and long-term loads were carried out. The tests were carried out on three series of beams of different types - from ordinary concrete, steel fiber concrete and combined section, when the lower zone of the beam with a height of0.5his made of steel fiber concrete, and the upper one is made of ordinary concrete. During short-term loading, the load was applied in steps with a 10-minute exposure at each step to failure or to a predetermined level of a continuously acting load. In the interval between the steps, the process of cracking was tracked. After reaching a given level of loading, the load was fixed and maintained unchanged with a spring cassette for 300 days. Deformations were measured using strain gauges and dial gauges. Deflections and relative deformations of the extreme upper and extreme lower fibers for three types of beams are determined. It has been established that stabilization of deflections in beams from steel fiber concrete occurs much earlier (100 days) than in beams made of ordinary concrete (175 days). Studies have shown that the beams of ordinary concrete in the process of long-acting load lowered the carrying capacity by 5.5%. The bearing capacity of steel concrete beams, in contrast, increased by 7.6%.

Two models of hollow core slabs were tested: reinforced concrete and steel fiber concrete. When designing slab models, the proportions of full-sized structures were preserved for the further possibility of correct data comparison. As a result of testing models of hollow core slabs, it was found that the bearing capacity of a slab with combined reinforcement is 24% higher than that of reinforced concrete, the deflection is 36% less, and the crack resistance is 18% higher. The use of steel fiber made it possible to avoid the brittle fracture of a steel fiber reinforced concrete slab, which was observed in the model of a conventional reinforced concrete slab.

This work addresses how vibration stirring, steel-fiber volume ratio, and matrix strength affect the mechanical properties of steel-fiber-reinforced concrete. The goal of the work is to improve the homogeneity of steel-fiber-reinforced concrete, which is done by comparing the mechanical properties of steel-fiber-reinforced concrete fabricated by ordinary stirring with that fabricated by vibration stirring. The results show that the mechanical properties of steel-fiber-reinforced concrete produced by vibration mixing are better than those produced by ordinary mixing. The general trend is that the mechanical properties of steel-fiber concrete have a linear relationship with the matrix strength and the volume ratio of steel fiber. The best mechanical properties are obtained for a steel-fiber volume ratio of less than 1%. We have also established calculation models for the mechanical performance index of vibration, mixing steel-fiber concrete based on the test results. Microscopic studies show that vibration stirring optimizes the microstructure of the transition zone between the concrete interface and the slurry, and improves the homogeneity of the steel-fiber-reinforced concrete, and enhances the adhesion between the mixture components.

Orthotropic steel deck; Shear nail; Steel fiber concrete pavement layer; Stress analysis. Abstract. Aiming at the optimization design of composite pavement on orthotropic deck in a streamlined steel box girder with lager wide-to-span ratio, finite element analysis is taken under various loads supplemented with static model; the stress distribution is analyzed in each part of the pavement layer. The theoretical results show that the deck of the bridge displays obviously orthotropic features; shear nails with reasonable density can increase the binding capability of each part of deck pavement and overall mechanical performance. It can be concluded that the service life of the deck pavement can be extended by the use of steel fiber concrete layer.
