Fibers for concrete

• The Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) is a composite material made of basic concrete inwhich a fiber reinforcement is incorporated and homogeneously distributed

• Fibers can be made of steel, polymers, glass or natural materials

• Fiber’s addition in concrete controls plastic and hydraulic shrinkage cracking, reducing crackspacing and crack width, thereby improving durability (even in aggressive chlorinatedenvironment as Abu Hamour Surface & Ground water drainage tunnel or Metro Green Line– Doha – Qatar)

• Fibers with an High Young’s Modulus considerably improves the concrete post-crackingbehaviour

• Fiber materials with a Young’s-Modulus which is significantly affected by time and/orthermo-hygrometrical phenomenon , are not covered by the Model Code 2010 and, ingeneral, should not be considered as structural materials

• Structural design of FRC elements is based on the post-cracking residual strengthprovided by fiber reinforcement

• For structural use, a minimum mechanical performance of FRC must be guaranteed

Standards and guidelines – Fiber’s and FRC properties

Fiber’s geometrical and mechanical characteristics are defined by the following standards:

• EN 14889-2006: Fibers for concrete; this standard specifies the requirements of fibers for structural or non-structural use in concrete, mortar and grout;

• ASTM A820 / A820M-11 : Standard Specification for Steel Fibers for Fiber-ReinforcedConcrete;

• ISO 13270-2013: Steel fibers for concrete;

Fiber-Reinforced Concrete flexural behaviour has been regulated as follows:

• EN 14651-2005: Test method for metallic fibre concrete. Measuring the flexural tensile strength (limit of prop. (LOP), residual);

• ASTM C1609 / C1609M-2012: Standard Test Method for Flexural Performance of Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (Using Beam with Third-Point Loading);

• JSCE-SF4: Method of tests for flexural strength and flexural toughness of steel fibre reinforced concrete

• UNI 11039-2003: Calcestruzzo rinforzato con fibre di acciaio. Parte 1: Definizioni, classificazione e designazione. Parte 2: Metodo di prova per la determinazione della resistenza di prima fessurazione e degli indici di duttilità

Several guidelines are available for the design of FRC elements.

In the 2012, the International Federation for Structural Concrete, has published the fib CEB-FIP Model Code 2010 (fib Bulletins 65-66).

Two chapters are dedicated to the Fiber-Reinforced Concrete:

• Chap. 5.6 Fibres/Fibre Reinforced Concrete;

• Chap. 7.7 Verification of safety and serviceability of FRC structures

Other available guidelines are:

• RILEM TC 162-TDF: Test and design methods for SFRC. Materials and Structures, Vol. 36, 2003;

• CNR DT-204/2006: Istruzioni per la Progettazione, l’Esecuzione ed il Controllodi Strutture di Calcestruzzo Fibrorinforzato;

• EHE-2008 ANEJO 14 : Recomendaciones para la utilización de hormigón con fibras;

• DAfStb : Technical Rule on Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete, 2012.

• Steel fibres, high strength drawn wire (2300 MPa), L/D ≥ 65, should comply with EN 14889-1, system 1;

• Steel fibres to be added by an automatic dosing system;

• The LOP and the residual flexural strengths are measured with the standard EN 14651; a minimum number of 6 beams must be carried out for pre-construction tests and a min number of 4 beams for continuous quality control (1/2000 m3);

• Fiber content in the fresh concrete to be checked daily, EN 14721;

• A daily visual check of the concrete mix is recommended;

• A casting and compacting check must be done for each application;

Specifications and practical recommendations

• Working points have to be planned and detailed; the effect of the fibers must not be taken into account in working points; thus additional rebar has to be placed there;

• Slump S3 or higher;

• Maximum aggregate diameter: 25 mm ;

• Min concrete class strength: fck = 30 Mpa

• Fiber type: Dramix ® 5D 65/60BG (structural applications) & Duomix ® M6 Fire(cracking control and fire resistance)
