Study of Properties of Frc on Concrete Pavement
Abstract
Concrete is one of the most widely used material in construction industry. Nowadays the behaviour the rigid pavement is on the expansion and need more analysis in improvement the properties of concrete. The lack of tensile strength under the severe conditions is one of the orientation or target in this paper. The improvement of the concrete in rigid pavement will be focused on using the fibres.
Study Of Properties Of Frc On Concrete Pavement The aim of study is to check the various characteristic of M- 40 concrete mix design by using steel fibers and polypropylene fibers individually as well as in hybrid form with normal mix design by varying the fiber percentages, to check the effects of hybrid fibres on behaviour of pavement quality concrete.
Conclusion
- All cement tests and aggregate tests confirms their respective acceptance ranges and gradation of course and fine aggregate satisfies the limited standards and hence can be utilized further for design purpose.
- Slump values for frc mix with steel fibres as well as polypropylene is found slight decreasing with respect to normal concrete mix of pqc m-40 grade. So to counter
- Balance the slump and to maintain the workability dosage of 1% super plasticizer Rheobuild 1126 is achieved by different trials and accordingly up to 30% of water Reduction is possible.
