Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties of Synthetic Macro-Fiber Reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

Workability, strength and fracture mechanics of polypropylene macro-fiber reinforced Reactive powder concrete (RPC) were studied in this work. The results showed that the incorporation of macro-fiber could influence the workability of RPC, the slump of RPC decreased with the increasing of macro-fiber content; compressive strength decreased while splitting strength increased with the increasing of macro-fiber, meanwhile the flexural strength invariant. Macro-fiber could strongly enhance the flexural toughness of RPC and changed the failure mode from brittle to ductile; fracture energy tends to increase linearly with the increasing of macro-fiber.
