Abstract |
|
The fibre reinforced concrete[FRC] is a material made of cementatious matrix composed of cement, sand, water and admixtures along with fibres such as glass fibres, steel fibres and polypropylene fibres. FRC offers many advantages, such as strength, durability, fire resistance. In this investigation the study of creep behavior of fibre reinforced high strength concrete with different proportion of glass, steel and polypropylene fibres. The creep test was carried out by sustained load and also the specimens were tested for compression, split tension, flexure, modulus of elasticity and creep deformation. The results indicate that with increase in steel fibre content the strength increases which in turn reduces the creep deformation. |
