Experimental Study of Factors on the Conductive Properties of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Abstract

Based on the test results of conductive properties of carbon fiber reinforced concrete, the main influence on content of carbon fiber, content of coarse aggregate, and carbon fiber length are discussed and analyzed. The test results show that when CF content reach the amount of 0.8%~1.2% by mass of cement, the factors have no significant effect on the fractional change in resistance under 0.5% of the significance levels. But when CF content reach the amount of 1.2%~2.0% by mass of cement, the factors show significant effect on the fractional change in resistance under 0.5% of the significance levels. The CFRC resistance can be taken the minimum only when the sand-cement ratio is 1.47, the CF nominal length is equal to 12mm and the CF content is accounted for 2.0% by weight of cement.
