Though the principle of orthogonal experimental design, the uniaxial compression experiment and uniaxial tensile experiment were carried out on nine groups of high toughness cementitious composites with different mixing ratios to study the influence of four factors, namely fly ash content, water-binder ratio, sand-binder ratio and plasticizer content on the compressive strength and ultimate tensile strain of high toughness cementitious composites. The experiment results show that PVA fibers content greatly influenced the flexural behavior and the influence of the four factors on the compressive strength and ultimate tensile strain of high toughness cementitious composite is basically the same, the primary and secondary order is: water-binder ratio, fly ash content, plasticizer content and sand-binder ratio.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
