Fiber composite is high anticorrosive, high strength and low weight ratio of strength(1/4 of reinforcing bar) so that strengthens concrete structures without increase of additional weight. But fiber composite has a brittle character which increases to the maximum stress point lineally and is suddenly destroyed. Hybrid fiber composite is developed to overcome weakness of fiber composite. The hybrid fiber composite is manufactured by bar type and consists of 9:1 volume ratio(glass : carbon). In this study the result indicates that it is purposed to find out reinforcing characteristics of hybrid fiber composite fixed with impact anchor.

Nondestructive damage sensing and mechanical properties for acid-treated carbon nanotube (CNT) and nanofiber (CNF)/epoxy composites were investigated using electro-micromechanical technique and acoustic emission (AE). Carbon black (CB) was used to compare to CNT and CNF. The results were compared to the untreated case. The fracture of carbon fiber was detected by nondestructive acoustic emission (AE) relating to electrical resistivity under double-matrix composites test. Sensing for fiber tension was performed by electro-pullout test under uniform cyclic strain. The sensitivity for fiber damage such as fiber fracture and fiber tension was the highest for CNT/epoxy composites. Reinforcing effect of CNT obtained from apparent modulus measurement was the highest in the same content. For surface treatment case, the damage sensitivity and reinforcing effect were higher than those of the untreated case. The results obtained from sensing fiber damage were correlated with the morphological observation of nano-scale structure using FE-SEM. The information on fiber damage and matrix deformation and reinforcing effect of carbon nanocomposites could be obtained from electrical resistivity measurement as a new concept of nondestructive evaluation.

This study examines shear capacity performance and structural characteristics of reinforced concrete beam using carbon fiber sheet(CFS), g)ass fiber sheet(GFS), glass fiber steel plate(GSP) and carbon fiber bar CB) which are reinforcing materials for reinforced concrete beam in order to produce similar condition to repair and reinforce actual structure and aims to provide data available In designing and constructing reinforced concrete structures under the structural damage. This study obtains the following conclusions. After considering the shear experiment results. it was indicated that the CB reinforced test object was the best in the shear capacity improvement and ductility capacity as it was contained in the concrete and was all operated, Also, GFS reinforced test object indicated the reduced flexural capacity but good shear capacity. GSP reinforced test object had bigger reinforcing strength than other reinforcing test objects. On the other hand, it showed the lowest reinforcement effect as compared section thickness of reinforced material because it showed the bigger relativity a section thickness of reinforced material. If the adherence to the concrete is improved, it will seem to show bigger reinforcement effect.

The reinforcing effect of C-shape carbon fiber was investigated as comparing to typical round-shape fiber with similar properties. The results show that C-shape fiber reinforced materials have better in almost all aspects of mechanical properties, or 218% in flexural strength, 223% flexural modulus, 157% interlamina shear strength, 227% impact strength, 184% transverse flexural strength and so on. Also in damping characteristics considerably concerned with fatigue life, friction/wear coefficient of a material, C-CF/EP had about 185% greater. In this research, we present the potential of non-circular fiber reinforcing materials by C-shape carbon fiber.

This study attempts to calculate tile nominal flexural strength of reinforced concrete beam with carbon fiber sheets by tile 27 cases which have three steel ratios and four reinforcing ratios. Based on the result, application possibilities of strength design method to estimate the nominal moment is investigated and valuable data of carbon fiber sheets for reinforcing design will be discussed.

The purpose of this paper is to induce the ductile behavior of the UHPFRC member after the peak load by using the bundle of longitudinal reinforcing bar as a substitute for steel fiber. Experiments on the flexural behavior of the Ultra High Performance Concrete rectangular beam with the combination of the steel fiber and longitudinal reinforcing bar were carried out. The volume fractions of steel fiber are 0%, 0.7%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% and the reinforcement ratios of longitudinal reinforcing bar which induce the ductile behavior are 0.0036, 0.016, 0.028 and 0.036. 15 UHPC beams were made with the combination of these test factors. Not only steel fiber but also bundle of longitudinal reinforcing bar has the effect to induce ductile behavior of UHPC structural member. The combination of 0.7% volume fraction of steel fiber and 0.028 reinforcement ratio showed the most economic combination. The relationship of load-deflection, strain variation of the concrete and the crack pattern indicate the usefulness of the bundle of the longitudinal bar which has small diameter with close arrangement each other.

The reinforcing effect of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber were investigated. The tensile fracture images of the composite fibers demonstrate that SWNTs are well dispersed in PAN matrix as bundles (ropes) ca. 20nm in thickness. It was found that SWNTs play a role not only to reinforce but also to toughen the PAN fiber by increasing breaking strain as well as modulus and strength of the fiebrs. The composite fibers exhibited improved dimensional stability at elevated temperature compared to the neat PAN fiber.

This study evaluated the crack reduction characteristics of concrete by type of fiber reinforced concrete. As a result of the experiment, it was shown that the fluidity decreased due to the mixing of the fiber reinforcing material. The higher the amount of fiber reinforced material used, the higher the decrease in fluidity. It was confirmed that the tensile strength was improved by the mixing of the fiber reinforcing material. The selection of fiber reinforcement has a great influence on the crack reduction effect.

Steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) were considered a new technology for the construction industry. However today this technology has found wider acceptance among the construction industry. Currently, steel fibres are used in varied segments in many application areas across different segments in the construction industry, especially in tunneling, airports, warehouses, etc. Time and safety are the main factors are among the various advantages which renders steel fibres superior to the competing product. For fibers reinforcing, The maximum load carrying capacity is controlled by fibers pulling out of the composite because fiber reinforcing does not have a deformed surface like larger steel reinforcing bars. The study demonstrated that above concept is applicable and effective in concrete structure by analytical study. The analytical result appears that SFRP have the potential to significantly increase the strength of existing concrete structures, while at the same time dramatically improving their fracture energy characteristics.
