Introduction to Fiber Reinforced Concrete
Concrete containing a hydraulic cement, water , aggregate, and discontinuous discrete fibers is called fiber reinforced concrete.
Fibers can be in form of steel fiber, glass fiber, natural fiber , synthetic fiber.
![Page 4: fiberreinforcedconcretefrc-131211023710-phpapp02](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081515/577ccf511a28ab9e788f70d3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Benefits of FRC Main role of fibers is to bridge the cracks that develop
in concrete and increase the ductility of concrete elements.
Improvement on Post-Cracking behavior of concrete Imparts more resistance to Impact load controls plastic shrinkage cracking and drying
shrinkage cracking Lowers the permeability of concrete matrix and thus
reduce the bleeding of water

Toughening mechanism
Toughness is ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.
It can also be defined as resistance to fracture of a material when stressed.

Factors affecting the Properties of FRC Volume of fibers Aspect ratio of fiber Orientation of fiber Relative fiber matrix stiffness

Volume of fiber
Low volume fraction (less than 1%) Used in slab and pavement that have large exposed
surface leading to high shrinkage cracking Moderate volume fraction(between 1 and 2 percent)
Used in Construction method such as Shortcrete & in Structures which requires improved capacity against delamination, spalling & fatigue
High volume fraction(greater than 2%) Used in making high performance fiber reinforced
composites (HPFRC)

Aspect Ratio of fiber
It is defined as ratio of length of fiber to it’s diameter (L/d).
Increase in the aspect ratio upto 75,there is increase in relative strength and toughness.
Beyond 75 of aspect ratio there is decrease in aspect ratio and toughness.
![Page 12: fiberreinforcedconcretefrc-131211023710-phpapp02](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081515/577ccf511a28ab9e788f70d3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Orientation of fibers
Aligned in the direction of load Aligned in the direction perpendicular to load Randomly distribution of fibers
It is observed that fibers aligned parallel to applied load offered more tensile strength and toughness than randomly distributed or perpendicular fibers.

Relative fiber matrix
Modulus of elasticity of matrix must be less than of fibers for efficient stress transfer.
Low modulus of fibers imparts more energy absorption while high modulus fibers imparts strength and stiffness.
Low modulus fibers e.g. Nylons and Polypropylene fibers
High modulus fibers e.g. Steel, Glass, and Carbon fibers

Advantage of Steel fiber
High structural strength Reduced crack widths and control the crack widths
tightly, thus improving durability less steel reinforcement required Improve ductility Reduced crack widths and control the crack widths
tightly, thus improving durability Improve impact– and abrasion–resistance

Durability
Resistance against Sea water (In 3% NaCl by weight of water) Maximum loss in compressive strength obtained was
about 3.84% for non-fibered concrete and 2.53% for fibered concrete
Resistance against acids (containing 1% of sulfuric acid by weight of water) Maximum loss in compressive strength obtained was
found to be about 4.51% for non-fibered concrete and 4.42% for fiber concrete

Problems with Steel Fibers
Reduces the workability; loss of workability is proportional to volume
concentration of fibers in concrete Higher Aspect Ratio also reduced workability

Application of FRC in India & Abroad More than 400 tones of Steel Fibers have been used
recently in the construction of a road overlay for a project at Mathura (UP).
A 3.9 km long district heating tunnel, caring heating pipelines from a power plant on the island Amager into the center of Copenhagen, is lined with SFC segments without any conventional steel bar reinforcement.
steel fibers are used without rebars to carry flexural loads is a parking garage at Heathrow Airport. It is a structure with 10 cm thick slab.
Precast fiber reinforced concrete manhole covers and frames are being widely used in India.

Conclusion The total energy absorbed in fiber as measured by the area
under the load-deflection curve is at least 10 to 40 times higher for fiber-reinforced concrete than that of plain concrete.
Addition of fiber to conventionally reinforced beams increased the fatigue life and decreased the crack width under fatigue loading.
At elevated temperature SFRC have more strength both in compression and tension.
Cost savings of 10% - 30% over conventional concrete flooring systems.
