Abstract:
SP44 A selectionof 29 papers on the properties and applications of fiber reinforced concrete by authors from 6 countries. Arranged in 2 general categories the first emphasizes the mechanics and properties of steel or glass reinforced concrete and mortar. The second describes developments in the application to pavements, block walls, and prefabrication of structural units.

Full size concrete pipe were cast using steel fibers as reinforcement to either replace all or some of the conventional cage reinforcement. The direct tension test yields reasonable estimates of the tensile strength of fiber reinforced concrete as veirified by stress-strain relations of it and of the pipe test and by the spliting tensile test.

Most test procedures used to measure the effect of alkali reaction upon E-type of glass fibers in cement matrices bear little relationship between the test and actual field conditions. This paper seeks to establish a more meaningful test procedure and to demonstrate, as a result, that commercially available E-type of glass fibers may be safely formulated in cement matrices.

Considerations of past performance of straight wire reinforced mortars in conjunction with some speculations as to the mechanism of short fiber action in concrete have suggested the use of a novel geometrical arrangement of fibers. . .Preliminary tests, using a far-from-ideal loop arrangment, show promise for greatly enhanced post peak strength, ducility, integrity and fatigue resistance when compared with regular concrete.

Two field applications of steel fiber reinforced concrete are reported - one, for the deck slab for a car park in London, and the other, in concrete pipe manufacture. The basis for the design of the deck slabs, and the manufacturing details of these units are described. The results of the ultimate load and load recovery test on two sizes of slabs with varying fiber content are presented. Tests are also reported of precast concrete pipes with fiber reinforcement. The economics of fiber reinforcement is briefly discussed.
