“…It was stated that the addition of fibre into concrete increases the compressive strength by 3.66% to 2.62%, respectively. The effect of the addition of basalt fibre on the mechanical properties of concrete was investigated by Arslan (2016). The compressive strength of normal concrete tend to increase by an average of 7.25% in the presence of 3 kg/m 3 content of basalt fibre.…”

In this study, the effects of different fibre types on the workability and mechanical properties of self-compacting concrete were investigated. Fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete, different fibre content 0.90, 1.35 and 1.80 kg/m3 were evaluated using basalt, polypropylene and macro synthetic fibres with different fibre lengths of 24, 19 and 40 mm, respectively. The properties of fresh concrete were evaluated in terms of slump flowing, viscosity and flowability. In addition, compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strength were obtained from hardened concrete properties. To characterize mechanical properties 90 specimens were experimentally tested. The results show that the use of fibre reduces the workability of self-compacting concrete. On the other hand, tensile and flexural strength of the self-compacting fibre reinforced concrete increased with increasing fibre content, but it was determined that the fibre addition had no significant effect on the compressive strength.

“…the increase in strength for BF specimen at 0.5% dosage is 24% compared to the reference specimen. Mehmet Emin Arslan [20] investigated the comparative study of properties of hardened concrete containing different length (12mm and 24mm) basalt fiber with different dosage (0.5, 1, 2, 3 kg/m 3 ). They conclude that the tensile strength of BFRC increase up to 10% compared to normal concrete at 2 kg/m 3 dosage of 24mm basalt fiber and decrease at 3 kg/m 3 dosage of 24mm basalt fiber.…”

“…Nihat Kabay [16] examined the mechanical properties of concrete containing basalt fiber with different length (12mm and 24mm) and different dosage (2 and 4 kg/m 3 ).the concluded that that the fracture energy of BFRC 126% higher than normal concrete 4kg/m 3 dosage of 24mm basalt fiber. Mehmet Emin Arslan [20] investigated the comparative study of properties of hardened concrete different dosage(0.5, 1, 2, 3kg/m 3 ) of 24mm basalt fiber. the result indicated that the fracture energy of BFRC 35% higher than normal concrete at 1kg/m 3 dosage of basalt fiber and the fracture energy of BFRC decrease at 2 and 3kg/m 3 dosage of fiber.…”

This paper represents the outcomes of some latest trends of research in the field of concrete composites prepared with chopped basalt fibers (CBF) as fillers. The paper summarizes noticeable findings of the experimental studies carried out to demonstrate the advantages and limitations of the addition of CBF in a conventional concrete specifically. The review inspired to conclude that the effect of addition of chopped basalt fibers has been studied by performing tests for the workability of fresh mixes, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexure strength with varying fractions and sizes of CBF. It was noticed that the workability reduced with addition of CBF and the strength properties showed an increment due to the CBF addition. However, lacking the explicit knowledge on the optimum dosage and preferred aspect ratio of CBF from the durability perspectives requires attention. Moreover, a compound usage of CBF with prevailing additives namely polymers, fly ash, silica fumes may be one of the potential areas for the researchers. Therefore, a need of extensive experimental study can be proposed dedicated to a full length experimental program for durability studies on concrete containing CBF can be proposed. The research outcomes indicated that addition of CBF into the concrete may prove advantageous to overcome the durability issues of concrete.

The natural fibers are evolving in the construction industry in many forms due to its dominant characteristics since decades. This paper delivers a review of the behavior of basalt fiber reinforced concrete under static and dynamic loading conditions. The main aim of the paper is to signify the influence of basalt fibers in concrete as chopped fibers, minibars, rebars, and meshes by showcasing the physical and mechanical properties of the concrete. The proposed review paper furnishes a summary of obtainable evidence about the incorporation of basalt fibers in concrete under various loading conditions. The effect of size and volume fraction of the fibers in concrete subjected to static loading and dynamic loading is discussed and reviewed. Additionally, the optimum length, diameter, and aspect ratio of the fibers with its volume fraction depending on the constituents in concrete is exhibited. Basalt fibers, can operate as an exceptional reinforcing material which can replace the conventional reinforcement with appropriate implementation. Highlights Application of basalt fibers in concrete based on different loading conditions has been reviewed. Properties and applications of basalt fibers in various forms were assessed. Static and dynamic behavior of basalt fiber reinforced concrete has been summarized based on the studied literature. Addition of suitable forms and size of basalt fibers in concrete were examined. Parameters such as volume fraction, aspect ratio of basalt fibers has been highlighted.
