SP44-18

Date:

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

Field experiments designed to evaluate the suitability and effectiveness of steel fibrous concrete as on overlay material for bridge decks, highway pavements, and airfield pavements have been carried out and others are planned. Although it will require many years before a complete assessment can be made of the performance of the experimental fibrous concrete overlays, the initial experiences and results have been encouraging.

Abstract:

As part of a large programme investigating the flexural behavior of full size partially prestressed composite T-beams, three dimensionally randomly distributed steel fibres have been introduced into a limited number of the precast webs. . .The tests show that steel fibre reinforcement can result in some improvement in the flexural behaviour of partially prestressed composite T-beams.

Abstract:

In this paper the methods of handling and placing of fibers in concrete are discussed. Along with the most currently used fibers in cement matrixes. Also, special equipment that is being developed to improve the handling and placing of the fibers in concrete. Other general topics and areas are discussed on (1) background and use of fibers in concrete; (2) types of fibers; (3) asbestos cement fibers; (4) glass fibers; (5) carbon fibers; (6) polypropylene fibers; and (7) steel fibers.

Abstract:

This report describes the use of steel fiber reinforced concrete as a construction material for high velocity water passages, specifically the wearing surfaces of flip lips on high velocity spillways. . .The results from both field and laboratory tests performed for acceptance, evaluation, and quality control are reported.
