Abstract

In order to predict the post-cracking tensile behavior of fiber reinforced concrete, it is necessary to evaluate the fiber orientation factor which indicates the number of fibers bridging a crack. For investigation of fiber orientation factor on a circular cross-section, in this paper, cylindrical steel fiber reinforced concrete specimens were casted with the variables of concrete compressive strength, circular cross-section size, fiber type, and fiber volumetric ratio. The specimens were cut perpendicularly to the casting direction so that the fiber orientation factor could be evaluated through counting the number of fibers on the circular cross-section. From the test results, it was investigated that the fiber orientation factor on a circular cross-section was lower than 0.5 generally adopted, as fibers tended to be perpendicular to the casting direction. In addition, it was observed that the fiber orientation factor decreased with an increase of the number of fibers per unit cross-section area. For rational prediction of the fiber orientation factor on a circular section, a rigorous model and a simplified equation were derived through taking account of a possible fiber inclination angle considering the circular boundary surface. From the comparison of the measured data and the predicted values, it was found that the fiber orientation factor was well predicted by the proposed model. The test results and the proposed model can be useful for researches on structural behavior of steel fiber reinforced columns with a circular cross-section.

섬유보강 콘크리트의 균열 후 인장 거동을 예측하기 위해서는 균열면에 걸쳐 있는 섬유의 개수를 산정하는 섬유분포계수를 합리적으로 예측하는 것이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 분석하기 위해, 콘크리트 압축강도, 단면 크기, 섬유 종류 및 섬유혼입률 등을 변수로 강섬유보강 콘크리트 공시체를 제작하였으며, 제작한 공시체들을 타설 방향에 수직인 방향으로 절단한 후, 절단된 원형 단면에서의 섬유 개수로부터 섬유분포계수를 측정하였다. 측정 결과, 섬유가 타설면에 평행하게 분포할 확률이 증가함에 따라 실제 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수가 일반적으로 알려진 0.5보다 작은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 단위 면적 당 섬유 개수가 증가할수록 섬유분포계수가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 논문에서는 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 합리적으로 예측하기 위해 섬유가 분포할 수 있는 각을 기하학적으로 분석하고, 이로부터 상세 모델과 단순화한 식을 유도하였다. 제안된 모델과 실험에서 측정된 섬유분포계수를 비교한 결과, 제안된 모델이 실제 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구로부터 확보된 실험 결과 및 제안 모델은 향후 원형단면을 지닌 섬유보강 콘크리트 기둥 부재 등의 구조적 거동 연구에 매우 유용할 것으로 사료된다.
