Abstract

An experimental study is performed to evaluate the effect of melt-extract stainless steel fibres on mechanical and flexural properties of concrete. A total of seventy-two specimens are used to determine an optimum fibre dosage and mechanical properties of plain and steel fibre reinforced concrete. Twelve full-scale beam specimens are then exposed to four-point bending tests. The effect of melt-extract stainless steel fibres on flexural behaviour of beams is quantified in this testing. A beam specimen is exposed to four-point bending, after being subjected to 15000 cycles of fatigue load. Pre- and post-fatigue flexural properties of beams with melt-extract steel fibres are compared and discussed.

Keywords
