Pullout behavior of steel fibres in self-compacting concrete
| Resumo: | In steel fiber reinforced composites materials, fiber and matrix are bonded together through a weak interface. The study of this interfacial behavior is important for understanding the mechanical behavior of such composites. Moreover, with the outcome of new composites materials with improved mechanical properties and advanced cement matrices, such in the case of steel fiber reinforced self-compacting concrete, the study of the fiber/matrix interface assumes a new interest. In the present work, experimental results of both straight and hooked end steel fibers pullout tests on a self-compacting concrete medium are presented and discussed. Emphasis is given to the accurate acquirement of the pullout load versus endslip relationship. The influence of fiber embedded length and orientation on the fiber pullout behavior is studied. Additionally, the separate assessment of the distinct bond mechanisms is performed, by isolating the adherence bond from the mechanical bond provided by the hook. Finally, analytical bond-slip relationships are obtained by back-analysis procedure with an interfacial cohesive model. |
