The Status

Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world. In terms of traffic and bridge construction, concrete is also the most widely used building materials. The cement concrete of the inherent advantages of having a high compressive strength while also has easy to produce cracks, poor impact resistance inherent weaknesses. These weaknesses limit the application of cement concrete. In order to improve the comprehensive quality of the concrete, to further improve the scope of application of cement concrete pavement, the main problems of cement concrete pavement is analyzed. Then the progress of the current hot research field of fiber reinforced concrete is analyzed comprehensively. Finally, on the basis of summing up the status quo, the next step is to study key issues is presented.

Pavement Engineering

In this paper, a cement concrete pavement, steel fiber reinforced concrete with than the experimental study, the analysis of steel fiber reinforced concrete pavement engineering, test results show that the steel fibers in the concrete evenly distributed, with cement mortarbetter integration, better crack resistance of concrete, and shrinkage of steel fiber reinforced concrete is much smaller than the specification requirements, and so has a great advantage for pavement repair.

Manufacturing Defects

Nowadays, Kenaf fiber is sustainably useful in marine structures and has become one of the materials that may be high in demand as it is light, biodegradable and environmental friendly. This study investigates the effect of fiber percentage on compressive strength of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) and the relationship between compressive strength and time of FRC immersion in seawater. FRC concrete cubes were prepared using four different percentage of fiber (0%, 1.5%, 3.0% and 4.5%). These FRC were immersed in seawater for 7, 14 and 21 days for three consecutive weeks. Based on the experiment, it was found that there was improvement in compressive strength of FRC when compared to plain cement concrete. The results showed that 3.0% of KF to cement matrix concrete determined the highest compressive strength of 205.43 Pa while 0% of KF fiber to cement concrete matrix (control specimen) showed the lowest compressive strength of 158.28 Pa. Also the addition of Kenaf fiber to cement concrete decreased the seawater absorption more than concrete with absolutely 0% of KF fiber to cement concrete (control specimen). In conclusion, the results did show significant improvement and a consistent trend on strength with the addition of FRC. This study also revealed that the percentage of water absorption was on the increase for 0, 7 and 14 days and become constant after day 21. This is due to manufacturing defects that occurred which block the water from entering the material and making the material absorb less water.

Bonding Property

According to experiments by comparing with normal cement concrete and other fiber reinforced concrete, they analyze the mechanical properties and features of sisal fiber reinforced concrete. Besides, they observe the fracture process of different ages and contents of sisal fiber reinforced concrete and analyze the bonding property, toughening effect and failure mechanism. The results show that sisal fiber reinforced concrete is superior to normal cement concrete on mechanical properties, and has a feature of multi-cracking, while compared with other fiber reinforced concrete, it is more economical.
