  • Fatigue
  • Hybrid reinforcement, fibre cocktails

Axial tensile test on a steel fibre reinforced concrete specimen

 


Idea to replace crosswise reinforcement by a prefabricated steel fibre reinforced concrete slab in e.g. foundations or wall elements Crack-bridging effect of steel fibres (view of beam’s bottom in a bending test) Optimized hybrid reinforcements (left) and corresponding crack pattern (right) for the case of partial area loading in longitudinal joints of lining segments Cutting a bone-shaped steel fibre reinforced concrete specimen for tensile tests using a water jet cutting system
