SCC and FRC may be classified as superior Concrete because of its special proportions and properties. HPC may be a specialized concrete designed top reduce many edges within the construction of concrete structures that can't continually be achieved habitually mistreatment standard ingredients, traditional mixture & hardening practices. Fibres into SCC will produce FRSCC with superior properties in a fresh and hardened state. The bolstered fibres in concrete might improve the durability, flexural strength, impact strength, toughness, drying shrinkage, and failure pattern of the concrete.

This paper presents experimental investigations on the mechanical properties of no-slump high-strength concrete (NSHSC), such as the compressive and flexural strength. First, to determine the proper NSHSC mixtures, the compressive and flexural strength of three different water-to-binder ratios (w/b) of specimens with and without polyethylene (PE) fiber was tested at test ages. Then, the effect of hybrid combinations of PE fiber and steel fiber (SF) on the compressive strength, flexural strength, flexural toughness, and flexural energy dissipation capacity was experimentally investigated. Furthermore, the various hybrid fiber-reinforced NSHSCs were evaluated, and their synergy was calculated, after deriving the benefits from each of the individual fibers to exhibit a synergetic response. The test results indicate that a w/b of 16.8% with or without fibers had lower strength and flexural strength (toughness) than those of other mixtures (w/b of 16.4% and 17.2%). Specimens with a hybrid of SF and short PE fibers exhibited a higher compressive and flexural strength, flexural toughness, energy dissipation capacity, and fiber synergy in all considered instances.

Shaft Lining

In order to study the strength change of high strength concrete shaft lining structure in underground complex environment resisting composite salt damage erosion, C70 high strength concrete test specimens were made and composite salt disaster solutions of different concentrations were compounded. The test results show that the coefficient of compressive strength and flexural strength of high strength concrete increase in early corrosion and then decline. The strength of specimen declines more quickly in higher corrosion solution concentration in latter time. The change law of the flexural strength is more complex than the compressive strength. Composite salt disaster solutions have little effect for no damage high strength concrete.

This paper presents the background experimental and analytical research that was carried out to develop the provisions for the seismic design of high-strength concrete structures in the 2004 Canadian standard CSA A23.3–04. It is noted that the 1994 Canadian standard CSA A23.3–94 limited the concrete compressive strength to 55 MPa for the seismic design of nominally ductile and ductile structures, while the 1995 New Zealand Standard limited the concrete compressive strength to 70 MPa. In contrast, the 2008 American Concrete Institute (ACI) code ACI 318M has no upper limit on concrete strength, even for the seismic design of ductile structural elements. This tremendous variation in these limits indicated that more experimental evidence was needed. This paper presents experimental results of reversed cyclic loading tests on large-scale structural components as well as simulated seismic loading tests of a frame structure constructed with high-strength concrete. The goal of this collaborative research program at the University of Sherbrooke and McGill University was to determine the seismic design and detailing requirements for high-strength concrete structures to achieve the desired level of ductility and energy dissipation. The experimental programs include full-scale testing of the following: columns subjected to a pure axial load (square and circular columns); columns subjected to flexure and axial loads; beam-column subassemblages (square and circular columns); coupling beams in coupled wall structures; shear walls and a two-storey, three-dimensional frame structure. The results of the responses of the high-strength concrete structural specimens are compared with the responses of companion specimens constructed with normal-strength concrete.
