Interlocking Tactile Concrete Paver with Addition of Steel Fibers

Abstract:

This work deals with the investigation of the performance of concrete with addition of steel fibers for production of interlocking paver. Was accomplished an experimental dosage of concrete and the addition fibers contents were 40Kg/m3, the molded pavers with conventional concrete and with addition of steel fibers and were accomplished tests of compression strength and water absorption, through the preliminary results, we verified that are satisfactory and achieve the specifications of Brazilian standard (ABNT NBR 9781:2013) and some international (ASTM-C936:1996 e CSA A231.2:1995).
