Experimental Study on the Ductility of SIFCON Blocks

Abstract:

This paper investigates the ductility of SIFCON blocks with various structural measures adopted to further increase their ductility. Ten SIFCON blocks with various designs were tested using a compression machine to investigate their ductility. The variables examined included fiber alignment, confinement, perforation, and longitudinal bars. Results of the tests indicated that SIFCON blocks with confinement in the form of stirrups and additional perforation can produce better ductility than others.
