Abstract:
To investigate the effects of steel fibre and nanometre fibre on the cracking of reinforced concrete, the cracking resistance of steel fibre reinforced concrete, nanometre fibre reinforced concrete, and hybrid fibre reinforced concrete with different doping levels were studied in comparison with the baseline concrete specimens by steel-Nano hybrid fibre reinforced concrete axial tensile tests. The results show that when the steel fibre admixture is 1.5% and the nanometre fibre admixture is 0.05%, the initial cracking load of reinforced steel-Nano hybrid fibre axial tensile specimens is enhanced the most, at this time, compared with the initial cracking load of plain concrete specimens by 58.9%, at the same steel stress level, when the steel fibre admixture is 1.5% and the nanometre fibre admixture is 0.10%, it is most effective for crack control.

Abstract:
Self-compacting concrete presents good workability to fill complicated forms without mechanical vibrations. This concrete is often reinforced with fibres to improve the strength and toughness. This study investigated the use of nickel -titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloy fibres in comparison with polypropylene and steel fibres in self-compacting concrete. The performances of the fresh fibre–reinforced self-compacting concrete are explored by slump flow and J-ring experiments. Meanwhile, the static and cyclic flexural tests are conducted to estimate the bending resistance strength performance, residual deformation and recovering capacity of shape memory alloy, polypropylene and steel fibre–reinforced self-compacting concrete. Moreover, the flexural toughness of the shape memory alloy, polypropylene and steel fibre–reinforced self-compacting concrete is calculated using four different codes. The shape memory alloy fibre–reinforced self-compacting concrete with 0.75% volume fraction presents the largest flexural strength, re-centering ability and toughness in comparison with polypropylene and steel fibre–reinforced self-compacting concretes. The experimental results demonstrated the beneficial influence of the shape memory and superelastic properties of NiTi in postponing initial crack formation and restricting the crack widths.

Abstract:
For use in fire resistance calculations, the relevant thermal and mechanical properties of steel-fibre-reinforced concrete at elevated temperatures were determined. These properties included the thermal conductivity, specific heat, thermal expansion, and mass loss, as well as the strength and deformation properties of steel-fibre-reinforced siliceous and carbonate aggregate concretes. The thermal properties are presented in equations that express the values of these properties as a function of temperature in the temperature range between 0 °C and 1000 °C. The mechanical properties are given in the form of stress–strain relationships for the concretes at elevated temperatures. The results indicate that the steel fibres have little influence on the thermal properties of the concretes. The influence on the mechanical properties, however, is relatively greater than the influence on the thermal properties and is expected to be beneficial to the fire resistance of structural elements constructed of fibre-reinforced concrete. Key words: steel fibre, reinforced concrete, thermal properties, mechanical properties, fire resistance.

Abstract:
The fibre utilization efficiency of directionally distributed fibre-reinforced concrete is better than that of randomly distributed fibre. However, controlling the fibre direction is difficult, which limits its applications. In this paper, a method in which fibres were artificially directed was used to simulate the feasibility of orienting fibres during 3D concrete printing. Based on artificially directed steel fibre-reinforced concrete specimens, the orientation characteristics of directional fibre-reinforced concrete specimens were studied. The differences between the gravity and the boundary effects in ordinary fibre-reinforced concrete and artificially directed fibre-reinforced concrete were compared. The average orientation coefficient in randomly distributed fibre-reinforced concrete was 0.59, whereas this value in directionally distributed fibre-reinforced concrete was over 0.9. This result demonstrated the feasibility of manually orienting the fibres in steel fibre-reinforced concrete in layer-by-layer casting.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper focuses on the consistency of fresh steel fibre reinforced concrete in relation to the amount of steel fibre used. Consistency was determined by the slump test and the flow table test. Furthermore, the paper deals with monitoring the compressive strength and volume changes during the maturing process of steel fibre reinforced concrete. Volume changes were monitored using a shrinkage drain. The results of the steel fibre reinforced concrete properties are compared with the values of the reference concrete without fibres and with each other. The result is an evaluation of how the amount of fibre affects the properties of fresh and hardened concrete. The dependence between consistency, compressive strength and shrinkage of steel fibre reinforced concrete is also established.

Abstract:
Corrosion in steel can be detrimental in any steel rebar reinforced concrete as well as in the case of steel fibre reinforced concrete. The process of corrosion occurring in steel fibre incorporated concrete subjected to corrosive environment was systematically evaluated in this study. Concrete specimens were prepared with steel fibre inclusions at 1.5%Vf(volume fraction) of concrete and were added in slag based concrete (containing manufactured sand) and replaced with cement at 20%, 40%, and 60% of total binder. Accelerated corrosion studies were carried out using alternate wetting and drying cycle accompanied with initial stress at 40% and 60% of ultimate stress. Concrete specimens were then immersed in chloride-free water and sodium chloride solution (3.5%) after subjecting to initial stress. The alternate wetting and drying process of different concrete mixes was continued for longer exposure (6 months). Later, the strength degradation during the accelerated corrosion process was then assessed in compressive and flexural tests. Test results indicated that the strength degradation was marginal in the case of steel fibre reinforced concrete containing higher slag content and for the concretes containing corrosion inhibitors. The maximum strength reduction was noticed in the case of plain concrete containing steel fibres and, with the slag addition, a considerable reduction in corrosion potential was noticed. Also, with the increase in slag replacement up to 60%, a significant increase in strength was noticed in flexural test. Experimental test results also showed that the corrosion process in steel fibre reinforced concrete can be controlled with the incorporation of corrosion inhibitors in cementitious system.

Abstract:
Hybrid fibres addition in concrete proved to be a promising method to improve the composite mechanical properties of the cementitious system. Fibre combinations involving different fibre lengths and moduli were added in high strength slag based concrete to evaluate the strain hardening properties. Influence of hybrid fibres consisting of steel and polypropylene fibres added in slag based cementitious system (50% CRL) was explored. Effects of hybrid fibre addition at optimum volume fraction of 2% of steel fibres and 0.5% of PP fibres (long and short steel fibre combinations) were observed in improving the postcrack strength properties of concrete. Test results also indicated that the hybrid steel fibre additions in slag based concrete consisting of short steel and polypropylene (PP) fibres exhibited a the highest compressive strength of 48.56 MPa. Comparative analysis on the performance of monofibre concrete consisting of steel and PP fibres had shown lower residual strength compared to hybrid fibre combinations. Hybrid fibres consisting of long steel-PP fibres potentially improved the absolute and residual toughness properties of concrete composite up to a maximum of 94.38% compared to monofibre concrete. In addition, the relative performance levels of different hybrid fibres in improving the matrix strain hardening, postcrack toughness, and residual strength capacity of slag based concretes were evaluated systematically.

Abstract:
This research was undertaken for studying the bond behaviour of Lightweight Fibre-reinforced Concrete (LWFC). Lightweight concrete is inherently weak in tension and has higher brittleness than the conventional concrete. To improve these and other properties, it is generally reinforced with deformed bars and fibres. There are number of studies that favour the use of Steel fibres, however such studies are mainly focused either on normal weight concrete or on the mechanical properties of different concretes. There are also different committee reports and in some cases specific sections of codes that specifically deal with the normal weight fibre-reinforced concrete. However, such is not the case with lightweight fibre-reinforced concrete; there is limited literature available especially on the Bond of lightweight fibre-reinforced concrete. In current research work effect of fibres is studied on the bond behaviour of the lightweight reinforced concrete. Since most of code provisions for bond are based on experimental work originally carried out on conventional concrete, effect of fibres on bond of conventional concrete was therefore also included in present research domain. Main bond tests were carried out using Pull-out test methodology. Test results indicate that the ultimate bond strength of conventional concrete when reinforced with steel fibres increased by 29%. However due to very low density and high porosity of lightweight aggregates, no significant improvement on bond strength of LWFC, as a result of fibres’ addition could be observed. Nevertheless, there is noteworthy improvement in the post-cracking bond strength of LWFC. Besides this, current bond-stress slip law as defined by Model Code 2010 does not reflect the positive effect of fibres, hence some modifications are suggested. It is also found that among the existing code expressions for estimation of bond strength, expression proposed by Model Code 2010 presents better results and its effectiveness can be further increased if fibre factor and factor for lightweight concrete are considered.

Abstract:
A series of full-scale axial compression tests was conducted on RC and SFRC columns. The specimens, which were detailed with varying amounts of transverse reinforcement, were cast using a self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mix that contained various quantities of fibres. The results demonstrate that the addition of fibres leads to improvements in load carrying capacity and post-peak response. The results also show that the addition of steel fibres can partially substitute for the transverse reinforcement in RC columns, thereby improving constructability while achieving significant confinement. Analytical models for the prediction of the load-strain response of SFRC columns are presented and validated with the experimental results. The tensile behaviour of SFRC members reinforced with a single reinforcing bar was also studied. The results indicate that the addition of fibres leads to improvements in tension stiffening and crack control. A procedure for predicting the response of tension members, accounting for the presence of fibres, is presented. Experimental investigations were carried out on a series of RC and SFRC beams. The effects of steel fibres on shear capacity, failure mechanism and crack control are studied. The results show that the addition of steel fibres leads to improvements in load carrying capacity and can lead to a more ductile failure. A simple procedure that can be used to predict the ultimate shear capacity of SFRC beams is introduced and validated using results from other researchers.
Une série d'essais a été réalisée sur des poteaux de taille réelle soumis à des charges axiales. Les échantillons, qui avaient des quantités variables d'armature transversale, ont été construits en utilisant un béton auto-plaçant qui contenait une quantité variable de fibres métalliques. Les résultants de cette étude expérimentale démontrent que la présence des fibres influence positivement la capacité portante des poteaux. De plus, les résultats montrent que l'utilisation d'un béton renforcé de fibres métalliques (BFM) peut s'avérer une solution appropriée pour assurer une ductilité adéquate aux poteaux. L'auteur propose des modèles analytiques pour prédire le comportement de poteaux chargés uniaxialement. Le comportement sous tension d'éléments en BFM armés d'une seule barre a été étudié. Les résultats montrent que la présence de fibres améliore la résistance en tension. Une procédure pour la prédiction de la réponse des éléments soumis sous tension, prenant en compte la présence de fibres métalliques, est présentée. Des recherches expérimentales furent entreprises afin d'étudier le comportement de poutres sans étriers. L'influence de la présence de fibres sur le développement de fissures ainsi que les mécanismes de ductilité et de rupture est discutée. Les résultats montrent que l'ajout de fibres améliore la capacité portante et la ductilité des poutres. Une procédure est suggérée afin de déterminer la capacité portante de poutres construits avec BFM.

Abstract:
A current limitation on the structural use of steel fibre reinforced sprayed concrete (that equally applies to cast steel fibre reinforced concrete) is a distinct lack of accepted design rationales and codes of practice. The research presented here describes the development of a model, based on conventional principles of mechanics, for predicting the flexure behaviour of a wet process sprayed concrete reinforced with deformed steel fibres. The model uses a stress-block diagram to represent the stresses (and resultant forces) that develop at a cracked section by three discrete stress zones: (a) a compressive zone; (b) an uncracked tensile zone; and (3) a cracked tensile zone. By using this concept it is shown that the stress-block diagram, and hence flexural behaviour, is a function of six principal parameters: the compressive stress-strain relation; the tensile stress-strain relation; fibre pull-out behaviour; the number and distribution of fibres across the crack in terms of their positions, orientations and embedment lengths; and the strain/crack-width profile in relation to the deflection of the beam. An experimental investigation was undertaken to obtain relationships for these parameters. Five tests were identified and developed as part of this investigation: a single fibre pull-out test; a compression test; a strain analysis test; a fibre distribution analysis test; and a flexural toughness test. The majority of the investigation used cast (as opposed to sprayed) specimens so that the test variables under investigation could be better controlled. Spraying trials were also successfully undertaken to demonstrate the pumpability and sprayability of the adopted mixes and to verify the use of the model for both cast and sprayed specimens. The results of the modelling analysis showed a reasonable agreement between the model predictions and experimental results in terms of the load-deflection response. However, the accuracy of the model is probably unacceptable for it to be currently used in design. A subsequent analysis highlighted the single fibre pull-out test and the sensitivity of the strain analysis tests as being the mai n cause of the discrepancies. As a result, recommendations are made for how the model might be improved. Overall this research has provided a valuable insight into the reinforcing mechanisms, fracture processes and characteristics of failure associated with the flexural behaviour of steel fibre reinforced concrete. It is envisaged that the proposed model could form the basis of a design rationale which requires only the matrix strength, fibre type, fibre content, beam size and loading geometry as design input parameters. Consequently, it could offer a much needed link between flexural toughness performance and structural design, by allowing designers to make informed choices regarding the mix design in order to meet the ultimate and serviceability requirements of a particular application.

Abstract:
The use of steel fibres extracted from waste tyres as reinforcement for concrete pavements has been developed at the University of Sheffield. The EU funded EcoLanes Project (Economical and sustainable pavement infrastructure for surface transport) undertook extensive research and developed solutions for Steel-Fibre-Reinforced-Concrete (SFRC) pavements with a particular focus on using recycled steel fibres and roller compacted concrete. The current research project ran alongside the EcoLanes project and aimed at contributing towards the development of design guidelines for pavements reinforced with recycled steel fibres. It was achieved through a study on the restrained shrinkage behaviour of Recycled-Steel-Fibre-Reinforced-Roller-Compacted-Concrete (R-SFR-RCC) pavements, and its consequent effect on the load bearing capacity and fatigue performance of pavements. The work in this thesis is mainly based on numerical investigations, but experiments were carried out to obtain the material properties (moisture transport, free shrinkage and mechanical). These basic physical properties were extracted from test results, using inverse analysis. The extent of distress induced by drying shrinkage was evaluated using moisture transport analysis coupled with stress analysis. The effect of shrinkage distress on the load bearing capacity of the pavement was investigated in a comparative way with and without shrinkage. Fatigue test results were also used to study the long-term load-bearing capacity. It was found that the rate of drying and consequent moisture diffusivity in SFRC is higher than for plain concrete and in RCC it is higher than for CC. Moisture diffusivity varies in the range of 0-5 mm2/day for moisture contents lower than 87-92% and then sharply increases to 30 mm2/day for saturated concrete. Free shrinkage is lower for SFRC compared with plain concrete, at early ages. RCC free shrinkage develops at a more uniform rate compared to CC. For the studied SFR-RCC pavement, surface micro-cracks are formed predominantly due to curling (with opening density of 0.69 mm/m) potentially forming micro-cracks (0.014 mm-0.056 mm width) spaced at 20 mm-60 mm. Cracking at the top surface initiates from the beginning of drying, and stabilises after 180 days. Shrinkage cracking penetrates down to around a quarter of the slab thickness, and the tensile strength at the top surface reduces 50% of the maximum strength; whereas based on the Concrete Society TR34, the strength reduces by 30% at the surface and drops linearly to zero at half depth. The current study found that the stress induced by curling is dominant, compared to that induced by external restraints. Shrinkage induced cracks was found to reduce the ultimate load bearing capacity and the fatigue capacity of the pavement by up to 50%.

Full text
Abstract:
An investigation of prestressed concrete containing steel fibres as secondary reinforcement to improve performance in shear, flexure and bond is reported. Emphasis is placed on the use of steel fibres in prestresssed extruded hollow core slabs, since these common precast elements have intrinsic difficulty in incorporating traditional secondary reinforcement due to their unique shape and manufacturing method. Two separate studies were carried out. The first study involved laboratory investigations into the bond between fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) and the prestressing strand, and the shear behaviour of laboratory-cast prestressed fibre reinforced concrete (PFRC) beams. The second part involved the factory production of fibre reinforced hollow core slabs in co-operation with a local manufacturer. The fibre reinforced hollow core slabs were subjected to conventional full-width shear tests, concentrated load shear tests, and to transverse flexure. For all laboratory cast elements, cubes, cylinders and prisms were cast to investigate compressive, tensile and flexural properties, respectively. Two types of steel fibre were investigated: hooked-end steel fibres at fibre volume fractions (Vf) of 0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5%; and amorphous metal fibres at Vf‘s of 0.28% and 0.56%. The trial production of fibre reinforced hollow core slabs necessitated the investigation of the effect of steel fibres on the extrusion manufacturing process. It was shown that fibre reinforced hollow core slabs could be adequately compacted with only slight increases in mixing water. Fibres were found to distribute randomly throughout the cross-section. However, the rotation of the augers affected the orientation of fibres, with fibres tending to align vertically in the web. It was shown that the addition of steel fibres to prestressed concrete has a negative effect on the bond between matrix and tendon, leading to longer transfer lengths. The effect of the increase in transfer length was to reduce cracking shear strengths by 4%. Shear tests showed that the incorporation of steel fibres could increase shear strength by as much as 45% for Vf = 1.5%. This increase in shear strength, known as the fibre contribution, was shown to be due to fibres bridging across the crack and an increased compressive resistance due to fibres arresting the propagation of cracks into the compressive zone. A semi-empirical equation for shear strength of PFRC elements is developed. It is given in two forms, one compatible with the present equations for prestressed concrete given in BS 8110 and Eurocode 2, and a second form compatible with that advocated for fibres in reinforced concrete. The equation makes use of equivalent flexural strength which is recognised as the most useful material property for design of FRC. The equation was found to give good correlation with the shear strength of single web beams cast both in the laboratory and under factory conditions. However, a overall strength reduction factor is required for full-width hollow core slabs to account for uneven load distribution and inconsistent web widths. This is consistent with tests on plain hollow core slabs found in the literature.

Abstract:
Using Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) can bring substantial benefits to the construction industry of which savings in construction time and labour are most significant. In addition, steel fibres enhance crack control particularly when acting in conjunction with reinforcement bars. Despite the aforementioned benefits of SFRC, there is a still a lack of consensus on the principles that should be adopted in its design. Currently, a number of different test methods are used to determine the material properties of SFRC but there is no agreement on which method is best. As a result, steel fibre suppliers claim widely differing properties for similar fibres which leads to confusion amongst designers and in some cases inadequate structural performance. This research considers the design of SFRC slabs with emphasis on pile supported slabs which are frequently designed using proprietary methods due to the absence of codified guidance. Key issues in the design of such slabs are control of cracking in service and the calculation of flexural and punching shear resistances. A fundamental challenge is that SFRC exhibits a strain softening response at the dosages commonly used in slabs. At present, the yield line method is generally considered most suitable for designing such slabs at the ultimate limit state but there is a lack of consensus on the design moment of resistance as the bending moment along the yield lines reduces with increasing crack width. This thesis investigates these matters using a combination of experimental and theoretical work. The experimental work compares material properties derived from notched beam and round plate tests and seeks to determine a relationship between the two. Tests were also carried out on continuous slabs with the same material properties as used in the notched beam and round plate tests. Round plate tests were also carried out to determine the contribution of steel fibres to punching shear resistance. The theoretical work investigates the applicability of yield line analysis to the design of SFRC slabs using a combination of numerical modelling and design oriented analytical models. Design for punching shear and the serviceability limit state of cracking are also considered.

REVIEW OF VARIOUS SHEAR CONNECTORS IN COMPOSITE STRUCTURES. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, December 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2021.17.4.8.

Abstract:
Shear connectors are devices that provide shear connection at the interface of steel girders and reinforced concrete slabs in composite structures to accomplish composite action in a flexure. The seismic response of composite structures can be controlled using properly designed shear connectors. This state-of-the-art review article presents considerable information about the distinct types of shear connectors employed in composite structures. Various types of shear connectors, their uniqueness and characteristics, testing methods and findings obtained during the last decade are reviewed. The literature, efficacy, and applicability of the different categories of shear connectors, for example, headed studs, perfobond ribs, fibre reinforced polymer perfobonds, channels, pipes, Hilti X-HVB, composite dowels, demountable bolted shear connectors, and shear connectors in composite column are thoroughly studied. The conclusions made provide a response to the flow of the use of shear connectors for their behaviours, strength, and stiffness to achieve composite action.
