본 연구는 강섬유의 인장강도 및 형상비가 고강도 및 보통강도 강섬유보강 콘크리트(Steel fiber-reinforced concrete, SFRC)의 압축 및 휨 거동에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 실시되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 가력속도에 따른 SFRC의 압축거동을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 총 4종류의 강섬유가 설계기준 압축강도 35 및 60 MPa급 SFRC에 각각 사용되었다. 압축거동 평가를 위해 지름 150 mm 및 높이 300 mm의 원주형 공시체를 사용하였으며, 단면 $150{\times}150mm$ 및 지간 450 mm의 각주형 공시체를 사용하여 휨 거동 평가를 실시하였다. 실험결과 강섬유의 혼입은 콘크리트의 인성을 크게 향상시키는 것으로 나타났으며, 고강도 강섬유의 사용은 고강도 SFRC의 성능개선에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 본 연구에서는 SFRC의 휨 인성지수에 근거한 압축인성지수 산정기법을 제안하였다.

In this study, the fiber orientation distribution (FOD) is investigated using both micro-CT (computerized tomography) and image analysis of physically cut specimens prepared from Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) fiber reinforced cemented Toyoura sand. The micro-CT images of the fiber reinforced cemented sand specimens were visualized in horizontal and vertical sections. Scans were obtained using a frame rate of two frames and an exposure time of 500 milliseconds. The number of images was set to optimize and typically resulted in approximately 3000 images. Then, the angles of the fibers for horizontal sections and in vertical section were calculated using the VGStudio MAX software. The number of fibers intersecting horizontal and vertical sections are counted using these images. A similar approach was used for physically cut specimens. The variation of results of fiber orientation between micro-CT scans and visual count were approximately 4-8%. The micro-CT scans were able to precisely investigate the fiber orientation distribution of fibers in these samples. The results show that 85-90% of the PVA fibers are oriented between ±30° of horizontal, and approximately 95% of fibers have an orientation that lies within ±45° of the horizontal plane. Finally, a comparison of experimental results with the generalized fiber orientation distribution function 𝜌(θ) is presented for isotropic and anisotropic distribution in fiber reinforced cemented Toyoura sand specimens. Experimentally, it can be seen that the average ratio of the number of fibers intersecting the finite area on a vertical plane to number of fibers intersecting the finite area on a horizontal plane (N^V_tot/N^H_tot) cut through a sample varies from 2.08 to 2.12 (an average ratio of 2.10 is obtained in this study). Based up on the analytical predictions, it can be seen that the average N^V_tot/N^H_tot ratio varies from 2.13 to 2.17 for varying n values (an average ratio of 2.15).

This study was to analyze characteristics of soils reinforced by FPF(Fibrillated Polypropylene Fiber). Laboratory test, model test and field tests were performed on soils reinforced by fibers, to evaluate the shear strength characteristics. For the silty sand, clayey sand and silty clay, the influence of fiber shape, fiber length and fiber content were evaluated from compaction test, direct shear test, uniaxial test, california bearing ratio(CBR) test. Fibrillated type fiber, 5cm long with a content of 0.5% shows 5∼30% increase of friction angle and 7∼55 percent increase of CBR value.

Basalt fiber is an eco-friendly fiber and comparatively newer to the world of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. A limited number of studies have been reported in the literature on the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP). The present experimental work explores the feasibility of using the BFRP strips for shear strengthening of the RC beams. The strengthening schemes include full wrap and U-wrap. A simple mechanical anchorage scheme has been introduced to prevent the debonding of U-wrap as well as to utilize the full capacity of the BFRP composite. The effect of varying shear span-to-effective depth (a/d) ratio on the behavior of shear deficient RC beams strengthened with BFRP strips under different schemes is examined. The RC beams were tested under a four-point loading system. The study finds that the beams strengthened with and without BFRP strips fails in shear for a/d ratio 2.5 and the enhancement of the shear capacity of strengthened beams ranges from 5% to 20%. However, the strengthened beams fail in flexure, and the control beam fails in shear for a higher a/d ratio, i.e., 3.5. The experimental results of the present study have been compared with the analytical study and found that the latter gives conservative results.

본 연구의 목적은 고강도 SFRC 보의 강섬유 보강효과를 평가하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 13개의 실험체를 제작하여 성능실험을 실시하였다. 실험 변수는 전단경간비, 강섬유 혼입률, 전단보강근비이며 콘크리트 강도는 60 MPa이다. 기존 연구결과와 재료 및 부재 실험결과에 대한 분석에 의하면, 전단경간비 2.5와 강섬유 혼입률 1.0%인 경우가 강섬유 보강효과가 최대로 발휘되는 것으로 평가되었다. 강섬유 보강 및 전단경간비를 고려한 기존 전단내력식은 고강도 SFRC보의 내력을 과소평가하는 것으로 평가되었다. 향후 고강도 SFRC 보의 강도특성에 대한 보완 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

The cemented sand and gravel (CSG) method is a construction technique that adds cement and water to rock-like materials, such as rivered gravel or excavation muck which can be obtained easily at areas adjacent to dam sites. This study was performed to evaluate the compaction and compressive strength properties of stress-strain, elastic modulus and fracture mode CSG materials reinforced polypropylene fiber. Polypropylene fiber widely used for concrete reinforcement is randomly distributed into cemented sand. The two types of polypropylene fiber (monofillament and fibrillated fiber) were used and fiber fraction ratio was 0, 0.2 %, 0.4 %, 0.6 % and 0.8 % by the weight of total dry soil. The effect of fiber fraction ratio and fiber shape on compaction and compressive strength were investigated. The optimum moisture contents (OMC) of CSG material increased as fiber fraction increased and the dry density of CSG material decreased as fiber fraction. Also, the maximum increase in compressive strength was obtained at 0.4 % content of monofillament and fibrillated fiber. CSG material behaviour was controlled not only by fiber fraction but also fiber distribution, fiber shape and fiber type.

계면상 조건과 단섬유 함유량 증가에 따른 강화고무의 동적 특성에 대해 실험적 고찰을 하였다. 손실계수는 대체적으로 섬유 함유량 증가에 따라 감소하였고 계면상 조건에 따라 다른 경향을 보였다. 계면 조건이 우수할수록 손실탄성율, $E_2$ 는 낮게 나타났다. 또한 동배율은 섬유 함유량 증가에 따라 감소하였고, 계면상 조건이 우수할수록 크게 감소하였다. 따라서 단섬유 강화고무는 진동수비가 $\sqrt{2}$이상에서 더 큰 진동절연 효과가 있다고 할 수 있다. 손실계수와 동배률의 관계로부터, 자동차의 엔진과 차체의 진동을 절연하는 부품인 Engine Mount Rubber의 적용가능성을 검토하였다.

Conventional researches on the behavior of fiber-reinforced and unreinforced soils often investigated the failure point. In this study, a concept is proposed in the comparison of the fiber-reinforced with unreinforced sand, by estimating the strength and strength ratio at different levels of strain. A comprehensive program of laboratory drained triaxial compression test was performed on compacted sand specimens, with and without date palm fiber. The fiber inclusion used in triaxial test specimens was form 0.25%-1.0% of the sand dry weight. The effect of the fiber inclusion and confining pressure at 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 3.0%, 6.0%, 9.0%, 12%, and 15% of the imposed strain levels on the specimen were considered and described. The results showed that, the trend and magnitude of the strength ratio is different for various strain levels. It also implies that, using failure strength from peak point or the strength corresponding to the axial strain of approximately 15% for evaluating the enhancement of strength or strength ratio, due to the reinforcement, may cause hazard and uncertainty in practical design. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the strength of fiber-reinforced specimen at the imposed strain level, compared to the unreinforced specimen.

Recently, the application of Rapid Setting Cement has been gradually increased as an important construction. However, Rapid Setting Cement shows brittle failure. Therefore, in this study, tests are carried out using Rapid Setting Cement containing fiber in order to improve such a poor property. silica-cement ratio are varied. According to experimental results, Fiber reinforced Rapid -Setting Cement showed the high ductility and strain capacity regardless of silica-cement ratio. With 0.5 silica-cement ratio, a bending strength is the highest.
