Abstract:

This study develops mathematical models for obtaining optimum flexural strengths of normal laterised(NLC) and high strength laterised concretes (HSLC). The models can be expressly used to evaluate the indirect tensile strengths of both types of concretes without going through the traditional methods of mix design. Optimum mixing ratios and optimum flexural strengths predicted are also supplied by the models. The three point load method was adopted for testing for the flexural strengths. Laterite, has been widely used to partially or wholly replace sand in concrete with resultant low strengths.

Abstract:

Flexural and tensile strengths of concrete are of great importance in structural engineering. Understanding the flexural strength of concrete helps designers prevent and control development of cracks in concrete elements, ensuring durability. In addition to serviceability, shear, bond failure and flexural capacity in concrete members are directly linked to the tensile strength of the concrete. When compared to flexural and tensile strengths, determination of the compressive strength of concrete is easier to carry out in the field. It is therefore, customary to determine the compressive strengt

Abstract:

This paper describes mixture formulation of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) with 2% of fibres by volume and its response to quasi-static and dynamic impact loading. The UHPFRC mixture was prepared using locally available constituents and no special curing or mixing methods were used for its production. In addition, the mechanical parameters of three other types of concrete, i.e. normal strength concrete (NSC), fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) and high performance concrete (HPC) is compared. The main properties assessed throughout the experimental work are compressive,

Abstract:

In this article, flexural strength and compressive strength of concrete containing polypropylene fiber (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste fiber and a combination between them were experimentally investigated. For this reason, laboratory experiments were performed on a total of 40 mixes. Results show that compressive strength property of concrete reinforced with PET waste fiber is not comparable to that of concrete reinforced with PP fiber, in which there is a compressive strength reduction, and the effect of PET fiber length on the strength is not important.

High-strength concrete (HSC) has been broadly applied to various civil structures for its advantages including high compressive strength and excellent durability and creep resistance. However, the brittleness of HSC raises concern about its use in practice. So far study on continuous reinforced HSC beams is limited. This work investigates the structural response of reinforced HSC continuous beams, and the results are compared with those of the counterparts made of normal-strength concrete (NSC).

On the other hand, geopolymer concretes have never before utilized hybrid fibers. This study is an effort to incorporate hybrid fibers in geopolymer concrete to prevent its brittle fracture.

The purpose of this research is to find the effect of adding gelam bark fibers towards compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength of concrete using PCC cement.
