본 실험적 연구는 강섬유의 길이와 혼입율이 콘크리트의 파괴인성과 강도에 미치는 영향을 고찰하기 위하여 수행되었다. 강섬유의 길이(30,60mm)와 혼입율(0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%)을 달리한 노치를 가진 강섬유보강콘크리트 보를 제작하여 3점 휨시험을 하였으며, 그 실험결과로부터 파괴에너지, CMOD 및 휨강도 등을 구하였다. 또한 파괴에너지로부터 콘크리트의 파괴인성을 평가하였다. 연구결과, 콘크리트의 파괴인성과 강도는 전반적으로 강섬유의 혼입율이 증가할수록 증가하였으며 강섬유의 길이는 휨강도에는 큰 영향을 주었으나 파괴인성과 압축강도에는 거의 영향을 주지않았다. 또한 강섬유의 분산성, 시공연도 및 굵은골재의 최대치수 등을 고려할 때, 콘크리트의 파괴인성과 강도측면에서 강섬유의 혼입율은 1.0%정도가 최적이라 판단되며, 그길이가 긴 경우 약간 유리하였다.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the effect of the length and volume fraction of smooth steel fiber on the electrical conductivity and shielding effectiveness of cementitious composites. As the length and volume fraction of the fiber increase, the movement of electrons becomes active and the formation of a conductive path becomes advantageous, thereby increasing electrical conductivity. Accordingly, the electrical conductivity and the shielding effectiveness showed a very close relationship. Thereafter, it is judged that research is needed to increase the shielding effect.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the properties of fiber-reinforced composite and stainless steel twisted retainers for orthodontic retention. Methods: Three different span lengths (5.0, 8.0, and 14.0 mm) of fiber-reinforced composite were investigated. The three fiber-reinforced composite retainer groups were subdivided according to the storage condition (dry and wet), resulting in a total of six groups. Each stainless steel and fiber-reinforced composite group was comprised of six specimens. The three-point bending flexural test was conducted using a universal testing machine. ANOVA was used to assess differences in the maximum load and maximum stress according to the span length, material, and storage condition. Post-hoc comparisons were performed if necessary. Results: The maximum stress and maximum load were significantly (p < 0.001) associated with the span length, material, and storage condition. The significant interaction between the material and span length (p < 0.001) indicated the differential effects of the material for each span length on the maximum stress and maximum load, with the difference between materials being the highest for the maximum span length. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that fiber-reinforced composite retainers may be an effective alternative for orthodontic retention in patients with esthetic concerns or allergy to conventional stainless steel wires.

Making a transverse opening in concrete beams in order to accommodate utility services through the member instead of below or above of that, sometimes may be necessary. It is obvious that inclusions of an opening in a beam decreases its flexural and shear strengths. Fabricated steel bars are usually used to increase the capacity of the opening section, but details of reinforcements around the opening are dense and complex resulting in laborious pouring and setup process. The goal of this study was to investigate the possibility of using steel fibers in concrete mixture instead of complex reinforcement detailing order to strengthen opening section. Nonlinear finite element method was employed to investigate the behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete beams. The numerical models were validated by comparison with experimental measurements tested by other investigators and then used to study the influence of fiber length, fiber aspect ratio and fiber content on the shear performance of SFRC slender beams with opening. Finally, it was concluded that the predicted shear strength enhancement is considerably influenced by use of steel fibers in concrete mixture but the effect of fiber length and fiber aspect ratio wasn't significant.

Lightweight concrete is a superior material due to its light weight and high strength. There however remain significant lacunae in engineering knowledge with regards to shear failure of lightweight fiber reinforced concrete beams. The main aim of the present study is to investigate the optimum usage of steel fibers in lightweight fiber reinforced concrete (LWFRC). Multi-scale finite element model calibrated with experimental results is developed to study the effect of steel fibers on the mechanical properties of LWFRC beams. To decrease the amount of steel fibers, it is preferred to reinforce only the middle section of the LWFRC beams, where the flexural stresses are higher. For numerical simulation, a multi-scale finite element model was developed. The cement matrix was modeled as homogeneous and uniform material and both steel fibers and lightweight coarse aggregates were randomly distributed within the matrix. Considering more realistic assumptions, the bonding between fibers and cement matrix was considered with the Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) and its parameters were determined using the model update method. Furthermore, conformity of Load-Crack Mouth Opening Displacement (CMOD) curves obtained from numerical modeling and experimental test results of notched beams under center-point loading tests were investigated. Validating the finite element model results with experimental tests, the effects of fibers' volume fraction, and the length of the reinforced middle section, on flexural and residual strengths of LWFRC, were studied. Results indicate that using steel fibers in a specified length of the concrete beam with high flexural stresses, and considerable savings can be achieved in using steel fibers. Reducing the length of the reinforced middle section from 50 to 30 cm in specimens containing 10 kg/m3 of steel fibers, resulting in a considerable decrease of the used steel fibers by four times, whereas only a 7% reduction in bearing capacity was observed. Therefore, determining an appropriate length of the reinforced middle section is an essential parameter in reducing fibers, usage leading to more affordable construction costs.

콘크리트의 슬럼프와 역학적특성에 대한 마이크로 섬유와 매크로 섬유의 영향을 파악하기 위하여 강섬유와 PVA 섬유로 하이브리드 보강된 콘크리트 16배합과 무보강 콘크리트 1배합을 실험하였다. 주요 변수는 강섬유와 PVA 섬유의 체적비 및 길이이다. 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 역학적특성들은 섬유보강지수에 따라 분석되었으며, 강섬유 또는 PVA 섬유만으로 보강된 콘크리트와 비교하였다. 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 슬럼프는 섬유 체적비와 형상비 증가와 함께 감소하였으며, 할렬인장강도, 파괴계수, 탄성계수 및 휨 인성지수는 섬유보강지수의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. 단일 섬유보강 콘크리트의 섬유체적비에 비해 낮은 체적비를 갖는 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 파괴계수와 휨인성지수는 단일 섬유보강 콘크리트에 비해 높았다. 하이브리드 섬유보강 콘크리트의 휨 인성 향상을 위해서는 30 mm와 60 mm 길이의 강섬유를 함께 사용하는 것보다는 60 mm 강섬유만을 사용하는 것이 효율적이었다.

상대적으로 제조공정이 짧아 환경 및 경제적 이점을 갖는 비정질강섬유(AF)를 길이 및 혼입률을 변화하여 휨성능을 평가와 더불어 기존의 일반강섬유(HF)와의 비교분석을 실시하였다. 섬유의 길이는 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm, 및 혼입률은 0.3%, 0.6%로 변화를 주어 실험을 진행하였다. 비정질강섬유(AF의 경우 비중은 일반강섬유(HF)와 거의 동일한 값을 가지나 겉보기부피는 약 2배정도 커서 같은 혼입률에서 투입되는 섬유의 개수는 훨씬 증가되어 배합설계에서 주의를 할 필요가 있다. 실험결과 휨강도의 영향은 섬유의 길이 및 혼입률이 증가할수록 강도의 증가를 보였으며, 일반강섬유(HF)보다 크게 나타났다. 특히 최대하중부근에서의 에너지소산능력이 뚜렷하게 증가하여 잔류하중단계에서의 급격한 감소에도 불구하고 일반강섬유(HF)와 거의 유사한 잔류강도 및 에너지소산능력을 보여주었다. 콘크리트 균열 후 파괴진행단계에서는 섬유의 인발저항에 의한 균열진행이 아닌 섬유의 파단에 의한 강도의 급격한 감소를 보여준 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, it evaluate the tensile properties of polyamide fiber reinforced cementitious composite and hooked steel fiber reinforced cementitious Composites by strain rate. Polyamide fiber reinforced cement composites (PAFRCC) and Hooked Steel Fiber Reinforced Cement Composite(HSFRCC) were fabricated. Each specimen was reinforced with 1.0 and 2.0vol% fiber. The length of the reinforced fiber was 30 mm for both fibers, and the tensile test specimen was made in dumbbell shape. As a result, the tensile strength of fiber in polyamide fiber and the mechanical bonding between fiber and matrix in hooked steel fiber are considered to be the main factors affecting tensile behavior of fiber reinforced cement composite.

Influencing factors on flexural toughness of ring-type fiber reinforced concrete(RSFRC) are investigated. An experiment proceeding ASTM C 78 is peformed to make a comparison between ring-type fibers and double-hook type fibers. Most specimen with ring type fibers have failed by the cone type failure, while discrete hook type fibers have failed by fiber pullout. For the hook-type fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC), the first crack load increases, as the fiber mixing volume increases. Aspect ratio(fiber length/fiber diameter) is critical for hook type fibers, so the flexural toughness increases significantly, as the length of fiber increases. However, for the ring type, the toughness indices Increase as the number of fibers in the specimen increases. Since there is no bond problem between the ring fiber and the concrete matrix, the aspect ratio does not affect the performance of the composite material with the newly developed steel fibers. Influencing factors with respect to flexural toughness RSFRC were observed to be ring diameter, diameter of steel fiber and fiber content.

The aim of the current work is to describe the flexural behaviour of simply supported concrete beams with tension reinforcement spliced at mid-span. The parameters included in the study were the type of the concrete, the splice length and the configuration of the hooked splice. Fifteen beams were cast using an ordinary concrete mix and two fiber reinforced concrete mixes incorporating steel and polypropylene fibers. Each concrete mix was used to cast five beams with continuous, spliced and hooked spliced tension steel bars. A test beam was reinforced on the tension side with two 12 mm bars and the splice length was 20 and 40 times the bar diameter. The hooked bars were spliced along 20 times the bar diameter and provided with 45-degree and 90-degree hooks. The test results in terms of cracking and ultimate loads, cracking patterns, ductility, and failure modes are reported. The results demonstrated the consequences due to short splices and the improvement in the structural behaviour due to the use of hooks and the confinement provided by the steel and polypropylene fibers.
