A REVIEW ON Study on Steel Fiber Reinforced Fly Ash Concrete

Abstract

Fibres are generally used as resistance of cracking and strengthening of concrete. In this project, I am going to
carry out test on steel fibre reinforced concrete to check the influence of fibres on flexural strength of concrete. According to
various research papers, it has been found that steel fibres give the maximum strength in comparison to glass and
polypropylene fibres.The present study focus on the systematic design methodology for producing a self-compacting concrete
(SFRSCC) consisting of steel fibre reinforcements. It is intended to achieve a self-consolidating concrete which can yield
dual benefit of self-consolidating properties as well as toughness of the composite. Experimental modelling consisted of
designing the mortar phase using manufactured sand (M-sand) as fine aggregate using systematic mix design methodology
based on particle packing concept. Optimisation of aggregates was arrived based on packing density concept by conducting
slump cone studies.
