Stress-strain characteristic of SFRC using recycled fibres

Abstract: Abstract:This paper presents work from a comprehensive study on the development of a flexural design framework for concrete reinforced with steel fibres that are recovered from used tyres. The experimental flexural behaviour of notched concrete prisms reinforced with these fibres is initially presented. For comparison purposes, prisms reinforced with industrially produced fibres are also considered. An attempt to adopt an existing RILEM design framework to derive appropriate tensile stress-strain blocks is mad… Show more

“…10. The figure confirms the linear relationship between mid-span deflection and strain and at the same time validates the choice of hinge length used to derive the stress-strain curves [8]. Figure 10 Numerical mid-span deflections versus tensile strains (1.5% VSF) By using Figures 6 and 7, it can be determined that the maximum strain of 10‰ (used by the original RILEM model [1]) corresponds only to 0.8 mm in deflection and hence, can not describe the full behaviour of the element which is capable of still resisting a substantial load at much higher deformations.…”

“…Previous research by the authors [8] indicates that the compressive strain measured at peak load for SFRC containing 1.5% virgin steel fibres (VSF), during thirdpoint bending tests, is around 0.4‰. This strain is considered to be in the linear elastic region.…”

“…In order to improve the resistance to tension, one can use steel reinforcement or fibres. On the basis of the experimental results it is obvious that steel fibres influence physical and mechanical as well as the technological properties of the concrete [8][9][10][11]. Steel and polymer fibres are being used for concrete reinforcement.…”
