Performance of Ultra-High Strength Concrete Containing Different Types of Fibers

Article Preview

Abstract:

Influence of fiber on workability and mechanical property of ultra-high strength concrete (UHSC) were studied. Results show that, when amount of steel fiber (Equivalent diameter is 0.2mm; nominal length is 13mm; Tensile strength is 2850MPa )substituting fine aggregate is 120kg/m3, UHSC could have the best mechanical properties of 139.0MPa compressive strength, 18.0MPa flexural strength, and 10.0MPa Splitting strength; steel fiber cannot improve volume stability of UHSC.
