Usage of smart materials in concrete is extensively increasing. This study focuses on behavior of fiber reinforced concrete, using shape memory alloys (SMA) fibers. SMA adopted for this study is NiTi shape memory alloy crystals. Concrete is tested for slump and mechanical properties tested are compressive strength for 7 and 28 days. Flexural strength is tested for 28 days. Constant rates of 1% of SMA fibers are added to the concrete mix. Also regular steel fiber reinforced is prepared and test values are compared with SMA fiber reinforced concrete

Steel Fibres

Experimental tests were carried out to assess the failure model of steel fiber reinforced concrete beams. Experimental research was focused on observing changes in the behavior of the tested elements depending on the amount of shear reinforcement and the fiber. Model two-span beams with a cross-section of 80x180 mm and a length of 2000 mm were tested. The beams had varied stirrup spacing. The following amounts of steel fibres in concrete were used: 78.5 kg/m3 (1.0%) i 118 kg/m3 (1.5%). Concrete beams without fibres were examined at the same time. The beams were loaded in a five-point bending test until they were destroyed. Shear or bending capacity of the element was observed. Fibre reinforced concrete beams were not destroyed rapidly, but they kept their shape consistent under load. Larger number of diagonal cracks with a smaller width were observed in fibre reinforced concrete beams. Failure of concrete beams without fibres was rapid, with a characteristic brittle cracking. Steel fibres revealed the ability to transfer significant shear stress after cracking in comparison to plain concrete.

Frp Confinement

In this study, the co-effects of steel fibers and FRP confinement on the concrete behavior under the axial compression load are investigated. Thus, the experimental tests were conducted on 18 steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) specimens confined by FRP. Moreover, 24 existing experimental test results of FRP-confined specimens tested under axial compression are gathered to compile a reliable database for developing a mathematical model. In the conducted experimental tests, the concrete strength was varied as 26 MPa and 32.5 MPa and the steel fiber content was varied as 0.0%, 1.5%, and 3%. The specimens were confined with one and two layers of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) sheet. The experimental test results show that simultaneously using the steel fibers and FRP confinement in concrete not only significantly increases the peak strength and ultimate strain of concrete but also solves the issue of sudden failure in the FRP-confined concrete. The simulations confirm that the results of the proposed model are in good agreement with those of experimental tests.
