: This paper investigates the effects of the tensile strength of steel fiber on the mechanical properties of steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete. Two levels of steel fiber tensile strength (1100 MPa and 1600 MPa) and two steel fiber contents (0.38% and 0.75%) were used to test the compression, flexure, and direct shear performance of steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete specimens. The aspect ratio for the steel fiber was fixed at 80 and the design compressive strength of neat concrete was set at 70 MPa to match that of high-strength concrete. The performance of the steel fiber-reinforced concrete that contained high-strength steel fiber was superior to that which contained normal-strength steel fiber. In terms of flexural performance in particular, the tensile strength of steel fiber can better indicate performance than the steel fiber mixing ratio. In addition, a compression prediction model is proposed to evaluate compression toughness, and the model results are compared. The predictive model can anticipate the behavior after the maximum load.

The fibers alignment in steel fiber reinforced high strength concrete (SFR-HSC) has naturally significant influence on the mechanical properties of concrete. Fiber-reinforced concrete being manufactured by means various kinds of specimen shape and diversified filling methods and directions, these variables are likely to produce effect on the fibers alignment leading to large differences in its mechanical properties. This study intended to evaluate the effect of placing and flow direction not only on the fibers alignment but also on the tensile behavior of SFR-HSC. Section analysis using photographic shooting was adopted to investigate the fiber alignment and revealed considerable difference in the fiber alignment according to the placing and flow direction. The best alignment appears to be achieved when placing is done in the direction of the flexural tensile stress and the alignment was change with the flow distance although the same flow direction. Such placing and flow direction produce little difference in the first cracking strength but significant discrepancy up to 50% in the ultimate tensile strength.

With the wide application of high strength concrete in the building construction,the risk making concrete subject to high temperatures during a fire is increasing. Comparison tests on the mechanical properties of high strength concrete (HSC) and normal strength concrete (NSC) after the action of high temperature were made in this article, which were compared from the following aspects: the peak stress, the peak strain, elasticity modulus, and stress-strain curve after high temperature. Results show that the laws of the mechanical properties of HSC and NSC changing with the temperature are the same. With the increase of heating temperature, the peak stress and elasticity modulus decreases, while the peak strain grows rapidly. HSC shows greater brittleness and worse fire-resistant performance than NSC, and destroys suddenly. The research and evaluation on the fire-resistant performance of HSC should be strengthened during the structural design and construction on the HSC buildings.

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.

The high strength concrete exhibits improved compressive strength with drawback of brittle failure due to lack of tensile strength which can be catered by the addition of fibers. The efficient use of fibers with hybridization at macro and micro level can improve mechanical properties of high strength concrete. The effect of hybridization of hooked end steel macro fibers (60 mm) and PVA micro fibers (12 mm) with different dosages was investigated in this research work. The different percentage of steel and PVA were hybridized to find out the best combination of hybridized fibers in high strength concrete. The compressive and flexural properties of high strength concrete along with complete load vs deflection behaviour of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete were investigated. The results revealed that hybridization of macro and micro fibers provided better improvement in flexural performance. It was observed from the results that the hybrid combination of fibers of 1% macro steel fiber and 0.15% micro PVA fibers proved to be the best for enhancement in flexural performance of high strength concrete.

Based on the fatigue test, 8 steel fiber reinforced high-strength concrete beams are studied, the influencing factors of crack width are discussed in the paper, and the calculation method of crack width under fatigue load is investigated. Based on the analysis of test results, the formulas are put forward. The results show that adding steel fiber into the high-strength concrete beams can prevent the development of the fatigue crack, fatigue crack widths are decreased by 26.0%~121.0% and the calculated values have good agreement with test date.

Through the three-point bending test on the specimens of steel fiber reinforced high strength concrete (SFHSC), the effects of influencing factors including water-cement ratio (W/C) and the fiber volume fraction (ρf) upon the critical value(JC) of J integral were studied. The results show that the variation tendencies of JC are different under different factors. JC meets the linear statistical relation with W/C, ρf, respectively.
