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.

Steel fiber has a fine nature in reinforcing concrete. This essay aims to find out the influence of physical forms of steel fiber on its nature of reinforcement. By comparing two types of cement mortar reinforced by steel fibers, it is found that spiral steel fibers have a better bond strength with matrix than straight ones. Therefore, a conclusion could be drawn that physical forms of the steel fiber play a significant role in steel fiber reinforced concrete, and the experiment also serves a rewarding reference to the application of spiral steel fibers.

Abstract: Reinforced concrete structures are frequently in need of repair and strengthening as a result of numerous environmental causes, ageing, or material damage under intense stress conditions, as well as mistakes made during the construction process. RC structures are repaired using a variety of approaches nowadays. The usage of FRC is one of the retrofitting strategies. Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) was used in this investigation because it contains randomly dispersed short discrete steel fibers that operate as internal reinforcement to improve the cementitious composite's characteristics (concrete). The main rationale for integrating small discrete fibers into a cement matrix is to reduce the amount of cement used. The principal reason for incorporating short discrete fibers into a cement matrix is to reduce cracking in the elastic range, increase the tensile strength and deformation capacity and increase the toughness of the resultant composite. These properties of SFRC primarily depend upon length and volume of Steel fibers used in the concrete mixture. In India, the steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) has seen limited applications in several structures due to the lack of awareness, design guidelines and construction specifications. Therefore, there is a need to develop information on the role of steel fibers in the concrete mixture. The experimental work reported in this study includes the mechanical properties of concrete at different volume fractions of steel fibers. These mechanical properties include compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength and to study the effect of volume fraction and aspect ratio of steel fibers on these mechanical properties. However, main aim of the study was significance of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with fiber reinforced concrete layer and to investigate how these beams deflect under strain. The objective of the investigation was finding that applying FRC to strengthen beams enhanced structural performance in terms of ultimate load carrying capacity, fracture pattern deflection, and mode of failure or not.

<p>To design flat slabs directly supported on columns, the punching shear resistance of the slab is a main factor. It can be increased in the vicinity of the slab-column connection with punching shear reinforcement, like bent up bars or shear studs, to bear the high reaction forces. However, the usage of punching shear reinforcement requires the knowledge of special design rules and often leads to problems and deficiencies in construction.</p><p>Fiber reinforced concrete seems to be a promising alternative to conventional punching shear reinforcement. To investigate the load bearing behavior of the slab-column connection using fiber reinforced concrete, a total of eight punching shear tests were performed. The specimens were realized with a typical top and bottom flexural reinforcement, but without punching shear reinforcement. Varied parameters were the slab thickness with 250 mm and 300 mm and the fiber content V<sub>f</sub> with 0.5 Vol.-% and 1.0 Vol.-%. To investigate the influence of modern fiber types, normal- and high-strength steel fibers with normal- and double-hooked-ends were used.</p><p>In all eight experimental tests, the intended punching shear failure was achieved. The capable load using fiber reinforced concrete increased by 20 % to 50 % compared to the reference tests without steel fibers, depending on the fiber type and the fiber content V<sub>f</sub>. Additionally, this load increase was accompanied by a significant improvement in ductility. The post-cracking behavior was noticeably influenced by the used steel fiber type. An influence of the slab thickness or steel fiber type on the shear strength contributed by the fiber reinforced concrete could not be determined.</p>

With the premise of ensuring workability on a fresh mixture, the volume stability of hardened self-compacting steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) becomes an issue due to the content of cementitious materials increased with the volume fraction of steel fiber. By using the expansive agent to reduce the shrinkage deformation of self-compacting SFRC, the strength reduction of hardened self-compacting SFRC is another issue. To solve these issues, this paper performed an experimental investigation on the workability, shrinkage, and mechanical properties of self-compacting SFRC compared to the self-compacting concrete (SCC) with or without an expansive agent. The calcium-sulfoaluminate expansive agent with content optimized to be 10% mass of binders and the steel fiber with a varying volume fraction from 0.4% to 1.2% were selected as the main parameters. The mix proportion of self-compacting SFRC with expansive agent was designed by the direct absolute volume method, of which the steel fibers are considered to be the distributed coarse aggregates. Results showed that rational high filling and passing ability of fresh self-compacting SFRC was ensured by increasing the binder to coarse-aggregate ratio and the sand ratio in the mix proportions; the autogenous and drying shrinkages of hardened self-compacting SFRC reduced by 22.2% to 3.2% and by 18.5% to 7.3% compared to those of the SCC without expansive agent at a curing age of 180 d, although the expansion effect of expansive agent decreased with the increasing volume fraction of steel fiber; the mechanical properties, including the compressive strength, the splitting tensile strength, and the modulus of elasticity increased with the incorporation of an expansive agent and steel fibers, which met the design requirements.

Test of basic properties of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) was carried out to further study the validity of the binary superposition mix proportion method. The strength grades of SFRC were CF40, CF50 and CF60. The key parameters of the study were the fraction of steel fiber by volume, the thickness of cement paste wrapping steel fibers and the water to cement ratio. The workability of fresh SFRC was measured firstly to satisfy the construction requirement. The compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural-tensile strength of SFRC were tested simultaneously. Based on the test data, the changes of above basic properties of SFRC are analyzed in view of the effects of the fraction of steel fiber by volume and the thickness of cement paste wrapping steel fibers. It shows that the optimum thickness of cement past wrapping steel fibers is 0.8mm. The influencing coefficients in formulas for calculating tensile strength and flexural-tensile strength of SFRC specified in the current technical specification are given out.

The interface bond between steel fibers and concrete matrix is the key of carrying capacity of steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC). In marine tidal fluctuation zone and splashed area, steel fibers will be rusty, and the bending toughness of SFRC was weakened. In this study, we tried to improve corrosion resistance of steel fiber and the interface bond strength by depositing zinc phosphate coating on steel fiber. These zinc phosphate steel fiber reinforced concrete(ZSFRC) have higher anti-corrosion ability. After corrosion they still have higher bending toughness than common SFRC.
