Cyclic Loading Over “Stress Behaviour of High Strength Fibre (Steel and Glass) Reinforced Concrete

Vatsal Rajput, Rahul Rathore

Abstract


Construction spectrum is growing as it has never been before; there is always something under new construction. It is thus very much important to use updated materials in construction to improve usability, workability and durability, along with the increase in characteristic strengths of material with respect to high rise structures specially. Concrete is one such material obtained from mixing of various materials. Concrete is good at compressive strength but shows lesser strength in tensile and flexural. To enhance the tensile properties of concrete, it might be prepared with suitable materials such as admixtures or internal reinforcing agents like fibres and steels. Steel and Glass fibre are such two materials which is used in concrete construction technology to rise the tensile, flexural and shear strength and reduce cracks and fatigue. In this dissertation thesis, it is tried to study the shear behaviour on the basis of loads applied in an experimental setup by the use of universal testing machine (UTM) and check cracks. Glass fibre and steel are used here to the concrete mix proportion in various percentages with respect to cement proportion. The test has been done by me in order to check shear behaviour under load for the fibre reinforced concrete; so, obtained, by making cube and prism blocks. Depending upon the Calculated results and graphs that is obtained; during testing of the fibre reinforced concrete the evaluation of conclusion is done.
