This research is a comparative study, the use of carbon fiber and steel fiber for Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC). In previous studies, it was proven that the addition of steel fibers can increase the compressive and tensile strength of SCC. While carbon fiber is one of the most widely used materials for structural reinforcement in recent years. Therefore it is necessary to do a comparative study of the use of carbon fiber if applied to SCC. The percentage increase in carbon fiber and steel is 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%. Then do the testing of: slump test, compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength. The results showed the optimal percentage of steel fiber addition of 1.5%, can increase the compressive strength of SCC by 11%. However carbon fiber and steel do not increase the tensile strength of SCC, and tend to reduce flexural strength. Other results show that carbon fiber is not suitable for use in SCC.

Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a specially developed concrete for concreting under extreme condition of inaccessibility from heights. It is capable to flow under influence of its own weight. It could be used when encountered with dense reinforcement and complex structural design. Problem of segregation as well as bleeding is eliminated and vibration is not required for compaction. As concrete is strong in compression and weak in tension. Hence to make it strong in tension, discontinuous Anti-Crack high dispersion glass fibers are added. SCC mix prepared with addition of discontinuous glass fibers is called as Glass Fiber reinforced Self Compacting Concrete (GFRSCC). In this paper an experimental study has been carried out to check the effect of Anti-Crack high dispersion glass fibers on the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of SCC. The result show that, as compared to the Normal SCC, the compressive strength of GFRSCC increases by 2.80% and 12.42%, the split tensile strength of GFRSCC increases by 4.47% and 25.12% and the flexural strength of SCC increases by 6.57% and 14.34% when the Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers were added as 0.25% and 0.50% respectively by the weight of total cementitious material contents. The addition of 0.25% Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers to SCC has not much affect on the workability of Normal SCC. Whereas, addition of 0.50% Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers reduces the workability of SCC.

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.

Self-compacting concrete is one that is flow able by its own. The SCC is suitable for placing in dense reinforcement structures. It is a new generation performance concrete known for its outstanding deformity and high resistance to bleeding. The concrete is frail material which is comparatively tough in compression but fragile in tension. The tensile strength of concrete is improved by addition of fibers in the concrete mix. The addition of such fibers has negative consequence on the workability of concrete. Various types of fibers are used in concrete to provide the higher flexural strength and better tensile strength. In this research steel fibers are used to provide a better strength as compared with normal reinforced concrete. Steel fiber in SCC significantly improves its flexural strength, improved tensile properties, reduce cracking and improve durability. In this research the investigation of steel fiber in SCC to enhance the strength properties of SCC. The objective of the study was to determine different properties of SCC with steel fiber at different proportions. The experimental investigation was took on the freshly mixed and hardened properties of SCC of various mix with the different variations of fiber 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1% by using Viscosity Modified Agent (VMA) 1.5% of cement material by using M25 grade of concrete. In this research a series of tests were carried out for workability like slump cone test, U funnel, V funnel, L box test on SCC to check freshly mix properties like flow-ability, filling-ability, and passing-ability and hardened properties like compressive strength, split-tensile strength and flexural strength respectively and test were conducted at the age of 7Days, 14Days, 28Days on the SCC. The advantage of adding steel fiber in self-compacting concrete is that it enhances its overall strength.

Early Strength

One of the development of concrete technology in construction’s world is Self-Compacting Concrete. Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is an innovative concrete that able to “flow” and condensed by gravity and its own weight with little vibration or even without a vibration device at all. However, these concrete still have deficiencies like general concrete that is weak to tensile. To increase the tensile strength of the concrete is by adding fiber into the mix. One type of fiber that can be used as an additive to the mix is Polypropylene fibers. This study aims to determine the effect of adding polypropylene fibers to the mechanical properties and characteristics of SCC concrete and to know the optimal polypropylene fiber content in the manufacture of Self Compacting Concrete. Fiber addition variations are 0 kg / m3; 0.25 kg / m3; 0.5 kg / m3 and 0.75 kg / m3. The result of the research showed that the variation of 0.5 kg / m3 and 0.75 kg / m3 addition of fibers didn’t fulfill the requirements to be categorized as a SCC concrete. The results of hard concrete test showed the highest compressive strength that is on the SCC PP concrete of 22.31 MPa at the age of 1 day and 46.24 at the age of 28 days. The highest strength is on the SCC 0.25 PP concrete of 6.52 MPa at the age of 1 day and 10.07 at the age of 28 days. The highest flexural strength is on the SCC 0.25 PP concrete of 6.76 at the age of 1 day and 8.60 at the age of 28 days.

The utilization of steel fiber from waste tyres can be an alternative to reduce waste tyres due to the increase of tyre production in Indonesia annually. Steel fiber from waste tyre can be added to concrete mix to improve the concrete properties. In this study, the effects of steel fiber waste tyre (SFWT) on high strength concrete containing fly ash was investigated experimentally. The content of fly ash in the high strength concrete is 30% of being partially replaced the cement weight. Steel fiber waste tyres are obtained from extracting the steel wire of the waste tyres and then cut into 4 cm long. The addition of SFWT on the high strength fly ash concrete is 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2% by concrete volume. The mechanical properties of concrete such as compressive strength, tensile strength, and flexural strength are tested at day 28. The test results show that the addition of 2 % SFWT on high strength fly ash concrete increase the compressive strength, tensile strength, and flexural strength of the concrete by around 9.99 %, 63.75 %, 18.18 %, respectively.

Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is concrete with high fluidity so that it can flow and fill the spaces in the mold without the compaction process. This study discusses the effect of the adding of kaolin and polypropylene fibers in order to increase the flowability, compressive strength, flexural strength, and tensile strength in self-compacting concrete. The additional material of kaolin was 5%, 10%, and 15% of the cement weight. The polypropylene fibers were 1%, 1.5%, and 2%. The flowability test, which was used, was Table flow, V-Funnel, and L-Box. Compressive strength testing was conducted when the concrete was 7, 14, and 28 days old. The flexural test was performed with a measurement of 150 x 150 x 600 mm as many as 18 specimens tested at the age of 28 days. The results showed that the addition of kaolin and polypropylene fibers met the flowability specifications of self-compacting concrete. The addition of polypropylene can increase the flexural strength and tensile strength of the concrete beam, but cannot increase the compressive strength of self-compacting concrete.

Increasing demand and inadequate materials availability leads the researchers to find alternate materials. In general, hybrid fiber is nothing but mixture of two or more fibers. In this review, various properties of steel fibers and polypropylene fibers were studied. In order to study the physical and mechanical properties of steel fiber, polypropylene fiber and other materials used in concrete, various tests such as Slump cone test, Compaction factor, Compressive strength , flexural strength etc., were used. Hybrid fibers have the tendency to control cracks at different levels. Workability of concrete get reduced due to more addition of steel fibers.The addition of steel fiber and polypropylene fiber results in an increase of 12 to 14.30% compressive strength, 33 to 36.6% increase in flexural strength and 9 to 10.16% increase in split tensile strength. Addition of most favorable amount 0.9 to 1% of steel fiber and 0.9 to 1% of polypropylene fiber gives maximum compressive strength up to 41.67 to 42.68%. Split tensile strength increases by increasing the fiber content in concrete but workability decreases when steel fiber content is increased in concrete.
