This paper reports the results on deflection behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beam conducted using irregular-shaped Polyethylene Terephthalate (IPET) as a fibre. Three volume fraction of IPET fibre is used namely, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5%. All RC beam specimens are tested under four point loading under flexural capacity behaviour. The results for deflection behaviour namely cracking stage, yield stage and ultimate stage and ductility are reported. The results than are compared with control RC beam. It is found that the addition of IPET fibre improves the first crack and ultimate strength as well as ductility of RC beams proportional to the increment of volume fraction of IPET fibre. Therefore, based on the results reported, the addition of IPET fibre significantly increases the deflection behaviour of RC beam.

This paper summarises experimental results of some fresh concrete tests. Polypropylene fibres were added to the concrete mix to produce fibre reinforced concrete. Pozzolanic materials, including pulverised fly ash and silica fume, were used as partial replacement of cement, and their effects on the fresh fibre concrete were reported. Test results showed that the polypropylene fibre reduced the concrete workability significantly by thixotropic effect and decreased the setting time. Substitution of pozzolans also greatly affected the properties. The presence of fly ash increased the workability and setting time but in the presence of silica fume a reverse trend was observed. Empirical equations were proposed.

Polyethylene Terephthalate Fibre

This paper reports the results on cracking propagation and pattern of reinforced concrete (RC) beam conducted using irregular-shaped Polyethylene Terephthalate (IPET) as a fibre. Three volume fraction of IPET fibre is used namely, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5%. All RC beam specimens are tested under four point loading under flexural capacity behaviour. Prior to structural test, the materials properties which include the compressive and tensile strength test and modulus of elasticity test were determined. The results than are compared with control RC beam. It is found that the RC beam with IPET fibre does not significantly change the behaviour of failure mode, cracking propagation and pattern compared to control RC beam.
