The research reported here is concerned with the effects of the fiber combination condition and water/cement ratio on the mechanical properties of high performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites(HPFRCC). An experimental investigation of the behavior of steel cords(SC) and SC and Polyethylene(PE) hybrid fiber reinforced cementitious material under compressive and tensile loading is presented. In this experimental research, the tensile and compressive strength and strain capacity of HPFRCC were selected using the cylindrical specimens. The results show that W/C ratio is a significant effect factor on the compressive and tensile performance of HPFRCC. The envelope curve concept applies to hybrid fiber-reinforced cementitious composites in tension just as it does to compressive stress-strain curve of fiber-reinforced cement composites. For practical purposes, the tensile envelope curve may be taken to be the same as the monotonic tensile stress-strain curve.

Recently, many researches have been done to examine the behavior of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) subjected to the static loading. However, a few studies have been devoted to cyclic behaviors of FRC. A main objective of this paper is to investigate the cyclic behavior of FRC through theoretical method. A new cyclic bridging model was proposed for the analysis of fiber reinforced cementitious composites under cyclic loading. In the model, non-uniform degradation of interfacial bonding under cyclic tension was considered. Fatigue test results for FRC were numerically simulated using proposed models and the proposed model is achieving better agreement than the previous model. Consequently, the model can establish a basis for analyzing cyclic behavior of fiber reinforced composites.

겨울철 도로는 내부 수분의 빙결현상으로 인한 블랙아이스가 발생하여 많은 피해를 유발한다. 최근에는 다양한 기능을 가진 Multi-walled carbon nanotube(MWCNT)와 콘크리트를 복합하여 열적 및 전기적 성능이 우수한 건설 재료에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 나노-콘크리트 복합재료를 활용하여 시공한 구조물은 표면에 결함이 발생하여 일반적인 보강재를 사용할 경우 열적 및 전기적 성능이 현저하게 저하된다. 본 연구는 표면에 결함이 발생한 콘크리트 구조물을 단시간 내에 보강할 수 있는 초속경 나노-시멘트 복합체의 발열성능과 소비전력을 분석하고자 한다. 실험은 초속경 시멘트계 재료, 양생일, 공급전압을 매개변수로 설정한 뒤 수행하였다. 초속경 시멘트계 재료는 시멘트 페이스트, 모르타르, 콘크리트로 구분하였다. 실험결과, 양생일이 1일인 경우에는 전압을 20V 공급할 시 모든 초속경 나노-시멘트 복합체에서 10℃ 이상의 발열성능이 확인되었다. 양생일이 28일인 경우에는 1일에 비하여 동일 전압에서의 발열성능이 소폭 감소하였으나, 전압을 30V까지 공급하여도 안정적으로 발열성능이 유지되는 것으로 분석되었다. 결과적으로 초속경 나노-시멘트 복합체는 콘크리트 구조물 표면 결함을 보강한 후 단시간 내에 발열성능을 발현할 수 있고, 일정시간이 지나도 발열성능이 유지되는 것으로 판단된다.

This study has examined the flexural properties of natural and chemically modified coir fiber reinforced cementitious composites (CFRCC). Coir fibers of two different average lengths were used, and the longer coir fibers were also treated with a 1% NaOH solution for comparison. The fibers were combined with cementitious materials and chemical agents (dispersant, defoamer or wetting agent) to form CFRCC. The flexural properties of the composites, including elastic stress, flexural strength, toughness and toughness index, were measured. The effects of fiber treatments, addition of chemical agents and accelerated ageing of composites on the composites' flexural properties were examined. The results showed that the CFRCC samples were 5-12 % lighter than the conventional mortar, and that the addition of coir fibers improved the flexural strength of the CFRCC materials. Toughness and toughness index, which were associated with the work of fracture, were increased more than ten times. For the alkalized long coir fiber composites, a higher immediate and long-term toughness index was achieved. SEM microstructure images revealed improved physicochemical bonding in the treated CFRCC.

Ultra High Performance Cementitious Composites with compressive strength 200MPa (UHPCC-200) is proposed for the structural design of super high hybrid wind turbine tower to gain durability, ductility and high strength design objectives. The minimal wall thickness is analyzed using basic bending and compression theory and is modified by a toque influence coefficient. Two cases of wall thickness combination of middle and bottom segment including varied ratio and constant ratio are considered within typical wall thickness dimension. Using nonlinear finite element analysis, the effects of wall thickness combinations with varied and constant ratio and prestress on the structural stress and lateral displacement are calculated and analyzed. The design limitation of the segmental wall thickness combinations is recommended.

This article reviews the tailoring of engineered cementitious composites (ECC), a type of high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites with a theoretical design basis, for special attributes or functions. The design basis, a set of analytic tools built on micromechanics, provides guidelines for tailoring of fiber, matrix, and fiber/matrix interfaces to attain tensile ductility in ECC. If conditions for controlled multiple cracking are disturbed by the need to introduce ingredients to attain a special attribute or function, micromechanics then serve as a systematic and rational means to efficiently recover composite tensile ductility. Three examples of ECCs with attributes of lightweight, high early strength, and self-healing functions, are used to illustrate these tailoring concepts. The fundamental approach, however, is broadly applicable to a wide variety of ECCs designed for targeted fresh and/or hardened characteristics required for specific applications.

In this paper, it was assessed durability of ultra-high strength cementitious composites(UHSCC) with the range of 180MPa of compressive strength through the test method of chloride ion resistance, carbonation, freezing-thawing resistance, permeability. In order to compare with ultra-high strength cementitious composites, normal concrete and high-strength concrete were also tested. As the experimental result, it showed that UHSCC was cleary superior to the durability performance of normal concrete and high-strength concrete.

콘크리트를 포함한 일반적인 재료는 외부 하중의 작용 시 양의 포아송비 거동을 가진다. 한편, 격자시스템에 있어서는 음의 포아송비 거동을 가지도록 제작할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이중화살촉 형식의 2차원 음의 포아송비 격자체를 제작하여 역학적인 거동을 검토하였다. 또한 이러한 음의 포아송비 격자체로 보강한 시멘트 모르타르 복합체의 직접인장시험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과는 일반 격자체를 적용한 경우와 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 음의 포아송비 거동 격자체를 적용한 경우 복합체의 하중 직교방향의 변형을 구속하는 효과가 일반 격자체보다 더 효과적임을 보여주었다.

The fractal geometry is a non-Euclidean geometry which describes the naturally irregular or fragmented shapes, so that it can be applied to fracture behavior of materials to investigate the fracture process. Fractal curves have a characteristic that represents a self-similarity as an invariant based on the fractal dimension. This fractal geometry was applied to the crack growth of cementitious composites in order to correlate the fracture behavior to microstructures of cementitious composites. The purpose of this study was to find relationships between fractal dimensions and fracture energy. Fracture test was carried out in order to investigate the fracture behavior of plain and fiber reinforced cement composites. The load-CMOD curve and fracture energy of the beams were observed under the three point loading system. The crack profiles were obtained by the image processing system. Box counting method was used to determine the fractal dimension, D$_{f}$. It was known that the linear correlation exists between fractal dimension and fracture energy of the cement composites. The implications of the fractal nature for the crack growth behavior on the fracture energy, G$_{f}$ is apparent.ent.

EDCC (Eco-Friendly Ductile Cementitious Composites) is a recently created class of engineered cementitious composites that exhibit extremely high ductility and elastoplastic behavior under pure tension. EDCC contains reduced amounts of cement and very large volumes of fly ash. Due to these properties, EDCC has become one of the solutions to use in seismic upgrading. This paper discloses previous studies and research that discussed the seismic upgrading of unreinforced, non-grouted, unconfined, and non-load bearing masonry walls which are called URM infill walls using the EDCC technique. URM infill wall is one of the weak links in the building structure to withstand the earthquake waves, as the brittle behavior of the URM infill walls behaves poorly during seismic events. The purpose of this study is to fill a knowledge gap about the theoretical and experimental ways to use the EDCC in URM infill walls. The findings reflect the ability of the EDCC to change the behavior from brittle to ductile to a certain percentage behavior, increasing the overall drift before collapse as it increases the energy dissipation, and resists significant shaking under extensive levels with various types and intensities.
