Full textAbstract : Fiber reinforced self-consolidating concrete (FR-SCC) is one of the recent developments in the world of concrete technology which combines the self-consolidating performance with the post-peak ductility and multiple cracking advantages due to presence of fiber reinforcement in concrete. The use of FR-SCC increases the overall economic efficiency of the construction process by reducing the workforce, or energy consumption required, increasing speed of construction, reduction or elimination of the conventional reinforcement and to the simplification of reinforcement detailing and placement. The FR-SCC has gained increasing popularity applications in the last few years such as bridge decks, girders and beams. Despite the improvement evidence of synergy between self-consolidating technology and fiber addition in the FR-SCC, finding adequate properties of this material is mandatory to find any improper characteristics in the fresh and hardened states. In this regards, defects, such as fiber clustering, segregation and improper flow performance and placement due to improper rheological properties in the fresh state, which leads to reduction in strength, are evaluated. The main objective of this study is to evaluate some rheological and mechanical properties of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures with different aggregate contents and FR-SCC (incorporating different fiber types and contents). This can help to develop of FR-SCC with adapted rheology and proper mechanical performance including bond strength and shear strength for structural application. In order to evaluate the effect of fibers on rheological properties of SCC in the fresh state, mixtures incorporating four types of fibers with different aspect ratio (L/D) were investigated. The fibers included steel hooked (STH 55/30), steel drawn wire needles (STN 65/13), synthetic macro-fiber propylene (PP 56/38) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA 60/12) with variety of volume content (0.25%, 0.5%) added to the SCC reference. All mixtures has a fixed w/b ratio of 0.42 and different coarse aggregate contents of 29, 32 and 35%, by volume of concrete. The fresh concrete characteristics were evaluated by considering the slump flow, V-funnel, J-Ring, surface settlement and ConTec rheometer. The hardened properties, mainly compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength, flexural toughness, and modulus of elasticity were evaluated. The effect of fiber type, fiber content, and coarse aggregate content on ultimate shear load and shear toughness of the optimized mixtures. The mixtures including SCC reference, SCC with aggregate volume of 32% and 35% (SCCAGG 32% and SCCAGG 35%), SCC incorporating ST-H fibers with the dosages of 0.25% and 0.5% (FRSCC ST-H 0.25% and FRSCC ST-H 0.5%), SCC incorporating PP fibers with the dosages of 0.25% and 0.5% (FRSCC PP 0.25% and FRSCC PP 0.5%), SCC incorporating PVA fibers with the dosages of 0.25% and 0.5% (FRSCC PVA 0.25% and FRSCC PVA 0.5%) and SCC incorporating ST-N fibers with the dosages of 0.25% and 0.5% (FRSCC ST-N 0.25% and FRSCC ST-N 0.5%) were tested using the direct shear push-off test to evaluate shear strength and residual shear strength of the concrete. These test results could be used in the shear load carrying capacity of the structural element made by FRSCC. The test results show that adding fiber was much more effective than increasing aggregate content on the shear strength behaviour of SCC. The ultimate shear stress improvement of the mixtures incorporating fiber compared to the SCC reference mixture were 16.3% for STN 0.5%, 15.8% for STH 0.5%, 14.92% for PP 0.5%, and 7.73% for PVA 0.5% mixture. Moreover, adding fibers improved the post-peak shear behaviour of SCC compared to addition of aggregate content. Increasing the fiber content from 0.25% to 0.5%, by volume of concrete, improved shear strength, shear toughness and flexural toughness behaviour regardless of the fiber types. This enhancement was highest in the case of STH 0.5% and lowest values for PVA0.5%. The bond strength response of rebars located at different heights of the wall element (top-bar effect) investigated for optimized mixtures, including SCC reference, ST-H 0.5, and PP 0.5 mixtures was tested through direct pull-out test of rebars cast in the large wall elements. Adding propylene and steel hooked fibers to SCC is found to slightly increase the bond modification factor (top-bar effect) from 1 in the case of SCC up to 1.1 and 1.2 for propylene and steel hooked fibers, respectively. The wall elements made with SCC reference mixture showed the most uniform bond strength distribution and had less than 5% reduction of bond strength along the height. These bond strength losses for wall element cast with SCC incorporating 0.5 % of steel hooked fiber and that of propylen fiber with the same volume are 10% and 20%, respectively.

Studies of social networks have often taken the existence of a social tie as a proxy for the transmission of information. However, other studies of social networks in the labor market propose that the likelihood of information transmission might depend on strength of the tie; and that tie strength is a potentially important source of the tie's value. After all, even if job seekers have social ties to those who have valuable job information, the seekers will gain little information benefit when the ties do not actually transmit the information. This paper clarifies the conditions under which social ties might provide information benefits. We use a survey vignette experiment and ask MBA students about their likelihood of relaying job information via strong ties (to friends) or weak ties (to acquaintances), holding constant the structural locations spanned by the tie and job seekers' fit with the job. The results support the claim that strength of tie has a causal effect on the chances of information transmission: potential referrers are more likely to relay job information to their friends than to acquaintances. The larger implication of these findings is that whatever benefits there might be to using weak ties to reach distant nonredundant information during job search, these benefits need to be considered against the likely fact that people connected via weak ties are less likely to actually share information about job opportunities than are people to whom the job seeker is strongly tied.
