Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest a reference for an extensive evaluation about effectiveness of four types of fibers to control plastic shrinkage crack of concrete. So in this study for the practical use in construction field, the plastic shrinkage cracks shown from four types of concrete reinforced by mixing four types of fibers are quantitatively evaluated in points of the workability and compressive strength. Test showed that the mixing of Cl, N, P fibers except for C2 fibers decreased fluidity of fresh concrete. Compressive strengths of four types specimens were similar. Plastic shrinkage cracks were reduced by mixing each fiber, especially C2 fibers was very effective to prevent the plastic shrinkage crack. Therefore the reinforced concrete mixed with C2 fibers exhibited superior mechanical performance than the others.
