Abstract

In this study, the flexural test of amorphous steel fiber-reinforced concrete was performed according to ASTM C 1609 to investigate its flexural performances. The amorphous steel fibers have different configurations from conventional steel fibers : thinner sections and coarser surfaces. Primary test parameters are fiber type (amorphous and conventional steel fibers), concrete compressive strength (27 and 50 MPa), and fiber volume fraction (0.25, 0.50, and 0.75%). Based on the test results, flexural strength and flexural toughness of the amorphous and conventional steel fiber-reinforced concrete were investigated. The results showed that the addition of the amorphous steel fibers into concrete could enhance both flexural strength and toughness while the addition of the conventional steel fibers into concrete was mainly effective to increase the flexural toughness.

이 연구에서는 ASTM C 1609을 따라서 비정질 강섬유보강콘크리트의 휨실험을 수행하였고, 이를 바탕으로 휨성능을 평가하였다. 비정질 강섬유는 기존의 일반 강섬유와 달리 얇은 두께, 거친 표면의 특성을 가지고 있다. 주요한 실험변수는 섬유 종류(비정질 강섬유, 일반 강섬유), 섬유 혼입률(0.25, 0.50, 0.75%) 그리고 콘크리트 압축강도(27, 50 MPa)이다. 실험 결과에 근거하여 비정질 강섬유와 일반 강섬유보강콘크리트의 휨강도와 휨인성을 분석하였고, 그 결과 일반 강섬유보강콘크리트의 경우 주로 휨인성이 증가하였으나 비정질 강섬유보강콘크리트의 경우 휨강도와 인성을 모두 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.
