- Synopsis
- As for the fiber reinforced concrete, a study/development begins to be considered to be it as the subject in steel fiber, and many results are provided by the engineering works uses such as road pavement, tunnel shotcrete, tunnel second lining. About the architectural use, in slab on grade which is'nt the structural specifiactions, advantages such as shortening construction term and rebarless are evaluated, and demand enlarges it. Recently, the slab on grade concrete by organic fiber are beginning to appear on the market, and there can be the thing that there are arguments about a difference of both. In this study, first the flexural strength toughness tests were carried out for the purpose of confirming difference of properties in some kinds of fiber reiforcement materials. Next, intensive loading test for concrete flat plate simulated slab on grade were conducted.
