An experimental investigation of mechanical properties of jute fiber-reinforced concrete (JFRC) has been reported for making a suitable construction material in terms of fiber reinforcement. Two jute fiber reinforced concretes, called jute fiber reinforced normal strength concrete (JFRNSC) and jute fiber-reinforced high-fluidity concrete (JFRHFC), were tested in compression, flexure and splitting tension. Compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strengths of specimens were investigated to four levels of jute fiber contents by volume fraction. From the test results, Jute fiber can be successfully used for normal strength concrete (NSC) and high-fluidity concrete (HFC). Particularly, HFC with jute fibers shows relatively higher improvement of strength property than that of normal strength concrete.

The objective of the current study is to evaluate the effects depending on the types of reinforcing fibers being influential in view of mechanical properties and impact resistance of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete (HFRC) for applications to precast concrete structure. Hybrid fibers applied therefor were three types such as PP/MSF (polypropylene fiber+macro synthetic fiber), PVA/MAF (polyvinyl alcohol fiber+MSF) and JUTE/MSF (natural jute fiber+MSF), where the volume fraction of PP, PVA and natural jute was applied with 0.2 %, respectively, while based on 0.05 % volume fraction of MSF. The HFRC was tested for slump, compressive strength, flexural strength and impact resistance. The test result demonstrated that mixture of such hybrid fibers improve compressive strength, flexural strength and impact resistance of concrete. Moreover, it was found that HFRCs to which hydrophilic fibers, i.e. PVA/MSF and JUTE/MSF, were mixed show more improved features that HFRC to which non-hydrophilic fiber, i.e. PP/MSF was mixed. Meanwhile, the finding that PVA/MSF HFRC exhibited better performance than JUTE/MSF HFRC was attributed from the former having higher aspect ratio than that of the latter.

This study evaluated the effects of fibers on the void ratio, compressive strength and repeated freezing and thawing resistance of porous vegetation concrete with binder type (non-sintering inorganic binder and blast furnace slag cement) and natural jute fiber volume fraction (0.0 %, 0.1 % and 0.2 %). The natural jute fiber volume fraction affected the void ratio, compressive strength and repeated freezing and thawing resistance. Added of natural jute fiber resulted in improved properties of the void ratio, compressive strength and freezing and thawing resistance. Also, the both compressive strength and freezing and thawing resistance increased with natural jute fiber volume fraction up to 0.1 % and then decreased with fiber volume fraction at 0.2 %.

In this study, evaluated ware the strength and durability of the vegetated water purification channel concrete to which recycled aggregates, hawang-toh and jute were applied. Box-Behnken method of response surface analysis in statistics was applied to the experimental design. Experimental variables are as follows, recycled coarse aggregates, hawang-toh, blast-furnace slag and jute fiber. In the experiment, conducted were the tests of compressive strength, chloride ion penetration, abrasion resistance and impact resistance the replacement rate effects of the recycled aggregates, blast-furnace slag and hwang-toh on the performance of vegetated water purification channel concrete were analyzed by using the response surface analysis method on the basis of the experimental results. In addition, an optimum mixing ratio of vegetated water purification channel concrete was determined by using the experimental results. The optimum mixing ratio was determined to be in 10.0% recycled coarse aggregates, 60.0% blast-furnace slag, 10.1% hwang-toh and 0.16% jute fiber. The compressive strength, chloride ion penetration, abrasion rate, and impact number of fracture test results of the optimum mixing ratio were 24.1 MPa, 999 coulombs, 10.30 g/mm3, and 20 number, respectively.

콘크리트의 특성상 상대적으로 작은 인장강도로 인하여 균열에 취약한 성질을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 무근 콘크리트의 균열저감을 위하여 천연섬유 중 성능이 우수한 것으로 알려진 황마섬유에 대하여 다른 종류의 셀룰로오스 섬유와 비교 검토하여 보았다. 그 결과 황마 섬유의 경우 유동성 측면에서 다른 섬유에 비하여 양호한 결과를 나타내었고, 특히 소성수축 균열 저항성의 경우 혼입량 0.9 및 1.2 kg/$m^3$에서 플레인 대비 50 % 이상의 균열저감 성능을 발휘하였으며, 충격시험의 경우 WF 및 PULP 섬유에서 최종파괴까지 5회의 낙하횟수가 걸리는 반면 황마섬유는 혼입량에 따라 차이가 있지만 10~18회로 우수한 인성적 성질을 발휘하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, three kinds of cellulose fibers to crack reduction performance were evaluated and the results are as follows. Plastic shrinkage cracking is evaluated by the relative crack area, at all levels between $0.9kg/m^3$ and $1.2kg/m^3$, except for UF0.9% of upto50% showed are duction compared with Plain. In according to recommended amount of fiber in each area of the crack HF0.9>CEL1.2>UF0.6 effect of the order was more effective. While the impact strength of UF and CEL fibers until the final destruction are about five times the number of falls, HF fiber count drop was 10-18 time.

본 연구에서는 천연섬유인 KN섬유를 섬유보강 콘크리트에 사용하기 위한 방안으로, KN섬유의 혼입량 및 유기질 섬유보강재 종류에 따른 콘크리트의 공학적 특성을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 이러한 연구를 위하여 KN섬유의 혼입량 4종류(0, 0.3, 0.6 및 $0.9kg/m^3$) 및 비교용 섬유보강재(JT, CEL, PP 및 NY섬유) 4종류를 대상으로 슬럼프, 공기량, 소성수축 시험 및 압축강도, 인장강도, 휨강도, 그리고 건조 수축량, 탄산화 깊이 등을 실험하였다. 실험결과, KN섬유의 혼입량 $0.6kg/m^3$일 때, 인장강도 및 휨강도 증진에 매우 효과적이며, 소성수축 균열 및 건조수축량 저감, 탄산화 깊이에도 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 동일한 혼입량($0.6kg/m^3$)을 사용한 유기질 섬유보강재와의 비교실험에서 탄산화 깊이를 제외한 인장강도 및 휨강도, 소성수축 균열 및 건조수축량 저감 등에 KN섬유가 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, KN섬유의 혼입량 $0.6kg/m^3$를 사용하여 섬유보강 콘크리트에 적용하는 것이 콘크리트의 성능 및 환경성, 경제성 측면에서 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 향후 현장적용성에 대한 지속적인 연구가 요구된다.
