Experimental Study on Comparison of Hooked- End and Crimped Steel Fibres
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 9
Abstract
Fibres are generally used as a common engineering material for crack resistance and strengthening of concrete. Their properties and characteristics greatly influence the properties of concrete which has been proved already in many previous researches. Accordingly it has been found that steel fibres give the maximum strength in comparison to glass and polypropylene fibres. In this experimental study, two types of steel fibers namely hooked end and crimped fibers are used. The volume fractions taken are 0.75%, 1.0% and 1.25% and M30 grade concrete is adopted. Cement has been replaced with 25% of Class F flyash. The primary focus is to compare the mechanical properties of concrete using both fibres.
