The construction concrete printing requires new approaches at reinforcement performing. Only successful integration of the existing reinforcement systems will provide for the opportunity to design concrete structures and make objects with the help of additive technologies. The paper dwells upon the issues of possibilities and the efficiency of disperse reinforcement with basalt fibers. It presents a composition of a composite material for 3D printing of a type of fine-grained fibrous concretes with the required technological properties: a necessary plasticity and a high plastic strength for printing large-dimensioned items and structures without timbering by means of extrusion with a high material adhesion between the layers and controlled setting periods. The author studied a possibility to reclaim basalt fiber production wastes as a high-disperse fibrous filler for the reinforcement of polymer-modified concretes. The article provides the dependence of plastic strength on the fiber content in concrete. The authors consider the influence of components and the mechanism of modifying disperse particles of basalt fibrous concrete at obtaining the material for 3D printing. The obtained polymer-modified basal fibrous concrete has a good impact resistance, low water absorption and high crack resistance.

The selection of the composition of a highly mobile concrete mixture for manufacturing small architectural forms has been performed, and the strength characteristics of light fine-grained fibrous concrete have been studied. It has been experimentally established that the optimal ratio of the Portland cement to microsilica is 1: 1. The introduction of basalt fiber in the amount of 0.5% of the mass of solids contributes to the increase in bending strength of fine-grained concrete to 70%.

Abstract This article is devoted to the study of the mechanical properties of fine-grained concrete used for flooring in industrial and civil buildings. Characterized by the well-known advantages (unlimited raw material base, manufacturability, high homogeneity), fine-grained concrete requires an increased consumption of cement to achieve the necessary mechanical characteristics - compressive strength, abrasion, impact resistance. An alternative to the known technological method is proposed an intensive separate technology (IST) for preparing fine-grained concrete mixtures using a high-speed mixer-activator in the presence of hydrophobized basalt fiber and a polycarboxylate superplasticizer Relaxol-Super PC. The use of IST leads to an increase in the strength of fine-grained concrete in compression by 1.9 times, impact resistance by a factor of 2, and a decrease in abrasion by 40... 50% in comparison with the control. The relevance of using the technology of monolithic floors for industrial and civil construction is due to a wide range of varieties of Portland cement, the grain composition of aggregates, as well as the simplicity of the technology for preparing a fine-grained concrete mixture.

the article proposes a rational method for processing 3D printing concrete scrap using vibration equipment, which allows obtaining a multicomponent building material with minimal electricity consumption. As a crite-rion for the degree of grinding of concrete scrap, it is proposed to use the specific surface area of the finely dispersed part of concrete scrap, which should correspond to 400-500 m2/kg. The possibility of reusing the resulting product instead of the traditional fine aggregate of quartz sand is shown. It was found that the con-crete scrap without the addition of Portland cement hardens, reaching up to 48% of the compressive strength of the control samples by 28 days. When 10% of the binder CEM I 42.5 N was added to the concrete scrap processing product, the compressive strength of fine-grained concrete increased by 106.6%, and 20% of Portland cement - by 112.2 %, compared to the strength of control samples of a similar composition on tra-ditional quartz sand after 28 days of hardening. It is noted that this is primarily due to the weak contact zone of quartz sand and the cement matrix of concrete. The use of the product of processing concrete scrap al-lows obtaining building composites based on it with the complete exclusion of natural raw materials

This paper investigates the static mechanical properties and flexural impact properties of reactive powder concrete (RPC) reinforced by the basalt fiber through various experimental works. The results indicate that the highest flexural and compressive strength can be obtained when the fiber content is 3kg/m3. Length and diameter of basalt fiber both influence the mechanical properties. The basalt fiber of 25mm long and 18μ in diameter can have an ideal strengthening effect. The static mechanical properties and flexural impact resistance can be improved to a considerable extent.

Basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) has been applied for strengthening concrete structures. However, studies on reinforced concrete (RC) slabs strengthened by BFRP strips under impact loads are limited in open literature. This study investigates the efficiency of using BFRP strips with various strengthening layouts and anchoring schemes on the impact resistance of RC slabs. A total of 11 two-way square slabs were prepared and tested, including one reference specimen without strengthening and ten slabs strengthened with BFRP strips and/or anchors. The RC slabs were impacted by a drop weight with increasing height until slab failure. The observed failure modes include punching shear failure, BFRP sheet debonding and reinforcement fracture. The failure modes and the effects of using various strengthening schemes on the impact resistant capacity of RC slabs were examined. The quantitative measurements, such as impact velocity, indentation depth and diameter, were compared and discussed. In addition, numerical studies were carried out by using LS-DYNA to simulate the impact tests of RC slabs with and without BFRP strengthening. With the calibrated numerical model, the impact behavior of slabs with various dimensions and strengthening layouts under different impact intensities can be predicted with good accuracy.

Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is becoming more and more common in the field of modern construction. However, for wider implementation of this technology, it is necessary to solve a number of material-oriented scientific problems related to development of concrete composition with targeted rheological, stress-strain, physical and mechanical properties. It has been established that time periods between successful applications of layers play the crucial role in ensuring monolithic features of the “printed” structures. Application of mathematics planning of the experiment allowed establishing the main principles of formation of basic physical and mechanical properties of fine-grained concrete depending on material composition.

Conventionally laminated spacer composites are extensively applied in many fields owing to their light weight. However, their impact resistance, interlaminar strength, and integrity are poor. In order to overcome these flaws, the zigzag-shaped 3D woven spacer composites were rationally designed. The zigzag-shaped 3D woven spacer fabrics with the basalt fiber filaments tows 400 tex (metric count of yarn) used as warp and weft yarns were fabricated on a common loom with low-cost processing. The zigzag-shaped 3D woven spacer composites were obtained using the VARTM (vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding) process. The three-point bending deformation and effects of damage in zigzag-shaped 3D woven spacer composites were studied both in experiment and using the finite element method (FEM). The bending properties of zigzag-shaped 3D woven spacer composites with different direction, different numbers of weaving cycle, and different heights were tested in experiments. In FEM simulation, the geometrical model was established to analyze the deformation and damage based on the 3D woven composite structure. Compared with data obtained from the experiments and FEM simulation, the results show good agreement and also prove the validity of the model. Based on the FEM results, the deformation, damage, and propagation of stress obtained from the model are very helpful in analyzing the failure mechanism of zigzag-shaped 3D woven composites. Furthermore, the results can significantly guide the fabrication process of real composite materials.
