Pozzolanic Properties

Concrete is a very popular construction  material, widely  used in construction. The waste that is in the surrounding environment begins to be used for mixed materials in the manufacture of concrete, one of which is geothermal mud (geothermal sludge) which has pozzolanic properties because it contains alumina silica minerals so that it can be used instead  of cement. Waste steel fiber tires used residue from vehicles is an added material that can be used to improve the mechanical properties of concrete. This study aims to determine the effect of adding geothermal mud and used steel fiber to concrete. Planned concrete fc '30 MPa with geothermal mud as partial substitution of 20% cement and used tire steel fibers with variations of  0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% of the weight of concrete. Concrete Variation 4 (1.5% used tire steel fiber + 20% geothermal mud) has the highest compressive strength of 32.13 MPa compared to normal concrete of 30.006 MPa. For the splitting  tensile strength variation 4 is 1.8 MPa and its flexural strength is 2.457 MPa while the normal concrete is splitting tensile strength of 1.6 MPa and its bending strength is 2.210 MPa.

Carbonation Resistance

In order to investigate the carbonation resistance of shotcrete and the mechanical properties after carbonation, the accelerated carbonation test was carried out. The results indicate that the carbonation resistance of shotcrete is superior to that of normal concrete. With the increasing of carbonation depth, compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of shotcrete grew rapidly. The admixing of steel fiber can further improve the carbonation resistance, reduce the carbonation rate, and increase the splitting tensile strength of shotcrete greatly. Besides, based on analyzing the effects of construction technology and steel fiber of concrete for the carbonation resistance, a carbonation depth model for shotcrete was established.

The Impact

This research investigates the simultaneous impact of two different types of steel fibers, nanometakaolin, and nanosilica on the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete (GPC) mixes. To achieve this aim, different geopolymer concrete mixes were prepared. Firstly, with and without nanomaterials (nanosilica and nanometakaolin) of 0, 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% from ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) were used. Secondly, steel fiber (hooked end and crimped) content of (0, 0.5%, 1, and 1.5%) was used. Thirdly, optimum values of nanomaterials with the optimum values of steel fiber were used. Crimped and hooked-end steel fibers were utilized with an aspect ratio of 60 and a length of 30 mm. Geopolymer mixes were manufactured by using a constant percentage of alkaline activator to binder proportion equal to 0.45 with GGBFS cured at ambient conditions. For alkaline activator, sodium hydroxide molar (NaOH) and sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH) were used according to a proportion (Na2SiO3/NaOH) of 2.33. The hardened concrete tests were performed through the usage of splitting tensile strength, flexural, and compressive experiments to determine the impact of steel fibers, nanometakaolin, and nanosilica individually and combined on performance of GPC specimens. The results illustrated that using a mix composed of the optimum steel fibers (1% content) accompanied by an optimum percentage of 6% nanometakaolin or 4% nanosilica demonstrated a significant enhancement in the mechanical properties of GPC specimens compared to all other mixtures. Besides, the impact of using nanomaterials individually was found to be predominant on compressive strength on GPC specimens especially with the usage of the optimum values. However, using nanomaterials individually compared to using the steel fibers individually was found to have approximately the same splitting tensile strength and flexural performance.

This paper investigates the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of ultra high strength concrete containing steel fiber. The steel fibers were added at the volume fractions of 0%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1.0% and 1.5%. The compressive strength of the steel fiber reinforced ultra high strength concrete (SFRC) reached a maximum at 0.75% volume fraction, being a 15.5% improvement over the UHSC. The splitting tensile strength of the SFRC improved with increasing the volume fraction, achieving 91.9% improvements at 1.5% volume fraction. Strength models were established to predict the compressive and splitting tensile strengths of the SFRC. The models give predictions matching the measurements. Conclusions can be drawn that the marked brittleness with low tensile strength and strain capacities of ultra high strength concrete (UHSC) can be overcome by the addition of steel fibers.

The binary superposition mix design method is constructed to quantitatively calculate the compositions of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), which brings into sufficient cement paste wrapping steel fibers to strengthen the boundary surfaces of steel fibers with base concrete. The principle of the method is firstly introduced. The experiments were carried out to evaluate the validity of the method. In the experiment, the cubic and axial compressive strength as well as the splitting tensile strength of SFRC affected by the fraction of steel fiber by volume and the average thickness of cement paste wrapping steel fibers were tested. The results are analyzed on the basis of former studies specified in the current technical specification for fiber reinforced concrete structures, which show that the larger strengths especial the splitting tensile strength of SFRC in grade CF50 can be got by the method, but the less splitting tensile strength of SFRC in grade of CF40 should be further studied.

Slurry infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON) is one of the recently developed construction material. SIFCON could be considered as a special type of fiber concrete with high fiber content. The matrix of SIFCON consists of flowing cement mortar or cement slurry. SIFCON has a very good potential for application in area where resistance to impact and high ductility are needed especially in designing the seismic retrofit, in the structures under impact and explosive effects and repair of structural reinforced concrete element. The main objective of this paper is to determine the effect of steel fiber content and silica fume (SF) cement replacement on the mechanical properties of SIFCON concrete. The percentage of SF replacement was 10% by weight of cement in SIFCON slurry, and three different volume fractions of hooked ended steel fiber (6, 8.5, and 11) % were used. The tested properties of SIFCON were compressive strength and splitting tensile strength which were carried out on standard size of cubes and cylinders respectively at the age of 7and 28 days. It was observed that the mechanical properties of SIFCON were affected in a positive manner by using silica fume as a partial replacement of cement and by adding steel fiber reinforcement in different percentages. The compressive and splitting tensile strength up to 83.7 MPa and 17.3MPa, respectively were obtained at the age of 28 days.

Pozzolanic Materials

This paper investigates the possibility of combining steel fibers with different weight percentages along with their functions in increasing compressive strength, indirect tensile strength and bending strength. It`s been considered an important economic issue for a long time the ability to service and increase the load-bearing capacity of structural materials. Concrete as a widely used structural material is widely used today. Despite its remarkable properties including high ductility, high durability, longevity, availability and low cost, concrete is a brittle material and performs extremely poor under flexural and tensile loads. In general, the breakdown and destruction of concrete is strongly dependent on the formation of cracks and micro-cracks. As the loading increases, the micro-cracks interconnect and form cracks. In order to address this problem and to create homogeneous conditions, a series of thin filaments has been used throughout the concrete in recent decades; They are called fibers. Steel fiber is one of the most commonly used fibers in concrete. In this study, the compressive strength of concrete was investigated which in some specimens reinforced with steel and containing pozzolanic materials, the compressive strength of control samples increased with the use of fiber etc. In the present study, the flexural and tensile strength of steel fiber reinforced specimens were investigated. According to the results, flexural strength increases with increase in steel fibers. The designs contain 1%, 1.5% and 2% of the Dramix hooked steel fibers used in the research. By reinforcing the specimens with steel fibers, the behavior of tensile concrete is much more flexible than that of non-steel specimens.

The mechanical characteristics of steel fiber-reinforced lightweight concrete (SFLWC) under high temperatures are studied in this paper. Different concrete matrices, including all-lightweight concrete (ALWC) and semi-lightweight concrete (SLWC), and different steel fibers with hooked ends and crimped shapes are considered as objects. In addition, normal-weight limestone aggregates concrete (NWC), no-fiber ALWC, and SLWC were tested after high-temperature treatment as a control group. The temperature effects on the splitting tensile strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, compressive stress–strain curve, elastic module, peak strain, and axial compressive strength of the SFLWC were investigated. The results showed that, with increasing exposure temperature, both the axial compressive strength and the elastic modulus decreased, while the axial peak strain has a certain increase, and hence the stress–strain curves were gradually flattened. The toughness of all the concretes increased first and then reduced with increasing temperature, while the specific toughness of all the concretes increased with the increase in temperature. Compared with NWC and SLWC, ALWC had a better capacity to resist high temperatures, especially temperatures > 400 °C. Adding steel fibers can improve the capacity of energy absorption, specific toughness, and residual splitting tensile strength of lightweight concrete (LWC) before and after it is exposed to high temperatures. Based on a regression analysis, a segmented constitutive equation for LWC and SFLWC under uniaxial compression was derived from fitting the experimental findings, and the fitting curve agrees well with the test results.

Proper Disposal

The increase in volume of vehicles ultimately increases the number of waste tires. The proper disposal or reutilization of waste tires is a challenge. This study is aimed to utilize the steel fibers of waste tires as reinforcement in concrete. Concrete cylinders were cast with addition of different percentages of steel fibers (0-2%) and length (10-20 mm). The fresh and hard properties of concrete reinforced with different percentages of steel fibers and lengths were observed. It is seen that splitting tensile strength of concrete increased with increase in the length of fiber and with the increase in the percentage of fiber. The inclusion of the fibers in concrete causes the reduction in the workability of concrete.

In this investigation, sustainable High Performance Lightweight Aggregate Concrete (HPLWAC) containing artificial aggregate as coarse lightweight aggregate (LWA) and reinforced with mono fiber, double and triple hybrid fibers in different types and aspect ratios were produced. High performance artificial lightweight aggregate concrete mix with compressive strength of 47 MPa, oven dry density of 1828 kg/m3 at 28 days was prepared. The Fibers used included, macro hooked steel fiber with aspect ratio of 60 (type S1), macro crimped plastic fiber (P) with aspect ratio of 63, micro steel fiber with aspect ratio of 65 (type S), and micro polypropylene fiber (PP) with aspect ratio of 667. Four HPLWAC mixes were prepared including, one plain concrete mix (without fiber), one mono fiber reinforced concrete mixes (reinforced with plastic fiber with 0.75% volume fraction), one double hybrid fiber reinforced concrete mixes (0.5% plastic fiber + 0.25% steel fiber type S), and a mix with triple hybrid fiber (0.25% steel fiber type S1+ 0.25% polypropylene fiber + 0.25% steel fiber type S). Fresh (workability and fresh density) and hardened concrete properties (oven dry density, compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength, static modules of elasticity, thermal conductively, and water absorption) were studied. Generally, mono and hybrid (double and triple) fiber reinforced HPLWAC specimens give a significant increase in splitting tensile strength and flexural strength compared with plain HPLWAC specimens. The percentage increases in splitting tensile strength for specimens with mono plastic fiber are, 20.8%, 31.9%, 36.4% and 41%, while the percentage increases in flexure strength are 19.5%, 37%, 33.9% and 34.2% at 7, 28, 60, 90 days age respectively relative to the plain concrete. The maximum splitting tensile and flexure strengths were recorded for triple hybrid fiber reinforced HPLWAC specimens. The percentage increases in splitting tensile strength for triple hybrid fiber reinforced specimens are 19.5%, 37%, 33.9% and 34.2%, while the percentage increases in flexure strength are 50.5%, 62.4. %, 66.8% and 62.2% at 7, 28, 60 and 90 days age respectively relative to the plain concrete specimens.
