It used conventional techniques and materials prepared high strength fiber reinforced concrete whose strength class is above C100 and it studied the effect of fiber content on the mechanical properties and elastic modulus. It also studied the fire resistance of fiber reinforced concrete. Results suggest that the strength of 28d concrete is above 100MPa and the highest strength is 126.4MPa. Under the same ratio conditions, the greater the volume content of steel fiber concrete flexural strength, the splitting tensile strength is higher. The steel fiber volume only affect elastic modulus of concrete little. When it heats to 300 °C, the no fiber concrete comminuted burst while the fiber concrete does not damaged at elevated temperatures up to 300 °C and continue to heat up, the crushing damage occurs at about 460 °C. Has not been damaged concrete specimens at 300 °C, the quality have emerged about 3% decline, while the compressive strength increased by 35%-52%, the highest strength reached 180.3MPa.

Researchers investigated the utilization of crumb rubber aggregate recycled from waste tire in concrete to solve the problem of discarded tire and to produce a green sustainable concrete. However, a reduction in the mechanical properties due to crumb rubber inclusion occurs. Steel fiber rubberized concrete used in this study to provide a balance between the strength loss and sustainable issue. An investigation on the mechanical properties of rubberized concrete combined with hooked – end steel fiber is presented. Rubberized concrete with different replacement ratios of crumb rubber was incorporated in plain and steel fiber concrete mixes via partial replacement of fine aggregate. Four replacement ratios (17.5%, 20%, 22.5%, and 25%) were used to investigate the effect of the partial replacement of fine aggregate by crumb rubber on the mechanical properties of plain and steel fiber concrete. In both mixes, reduction in mechanical properties was observed to be proportionate with the increment of crumb rubber. Finally, a successful combination of steel fiber and crumb rubber was obtained due to improvement of strain capacity under flexural loading.

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.

Mechanical properties of steel fiber concrete under dynamic load had been obtained through dynamic loading experiments of steel fiber concrete in different volume ratios. The experimental results indicate that the dynamic load strength of steel fiber concrete is obviously more than the static load strength, the dynamic load strength increases with the increasing of the steel fiber volume ratio; and the effect of variable strain rate is obvious. When the strain is at 0 ~ 0.01 or smaller, the toughness index of plain concrete is slightly more than steel fiber concrete; the strain exceeded 0.01, the toughness of steel fiber concrete has improved greatly with the increase of the strain. When the strain rate is smaller, the elastic modulus changes little, and once the strain rate is more than 60 per second, the elastic modulus there is the more amplitude with the increase of strain rate.

The article presents the results of experimental and theoretical studies of strength and deformability of steel-fiber concrete double-sided pre-stress slabs under the action of transverse loading. The simulation of such plates in the software complex LIRA-SAPR was performed taking into account the physical nonlinearity of materials.
