Fiber’s addition to concrete mixture attracts researchers to determine the effect of fiber type on durability properties of hybrid performance concrete. In the present work, steel and polypropylene fibers are used in hybrid form in the experimental program. The objective of this paper is to investigate the mechanical properties of hybrid fiber rein...

This study aims at evaluating effect of fiber types on comprehensive property of a practical fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) applied for hydraulic construction. Three fiber types including polypropylene, glass, and steel fiber were used to replace concrete volume at 0.3 vol.%. Experimental results illustrated that when compared with the reference c...

Combining different types of fibers inside a concrete mixture was revealed to improve the strength properties of cementitious matrices by monitoring crack initiation and propagation. The contribution of hybrid fibers needs to be thoroughly investigated, taking into consideration a variety of parameters such as fibers type and content. In this paper...

The study aims to investigate the feasibility of using recycled aggregate (RA) and recovered fibers (RFs) obtained from recycling polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete (PPFRC) in new concrete production. The mechanical properties were compared between a parent PPFRC, polypropylene fiber-reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (PPRAC), and recovere...

The behavior of high-strength, fiber-reinforced concrete (HSFRC) beams under concentrated loads was affected by many different aspects, such as the type of fibers used and the volume percent of the fibers; nevertheless, the behavior was primarily affected by modifying the shear span-to-depth ratio (a/d). In this experimental investigation, the infl...
