Experimental Study of Hybrid Concrete
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Since ancient time, fiber reinforced concrete has been replaced with plain concrete which is brittle material. Although, the inclusion of single type fiber may improve mechanical properties of concrete, the hybridization can compensate the disadvantages of two fiber types and represent their advantages. The effect of using steel fiber and polypropylene fiber for reinforcing the concrete to quantify the mechanical properties of concrete matrix. For this purpose, specimens of fiber reinforced concrete which contains different fibers dosage were casted. All mixes were tested on 28 days of curing, compressive strength, and flexural strength. According to the test results, the regression analysis was carried out to predict the value of compressive strength and flexural strength. The experimental results show that the hybrid form of fiber has slight effect on compressive values, while it causes increase in modulus of rupture, toughness and impact resistance values.
