REVIEW OF BAHAVIOUR OF STEEL FIBRE REINFORCED FLY ASH CONCRET

CIVIL ENGINNERING

Concrete is one of the most common materials used in the construction industry. In the past few years, many research and modification has been done to produce concrete which has the desired characteristics. Cementitious materials known as pozzolans are used as concrete constituents, in addition to Portland cement. There is always a search for concrete with higher strength and durability. In this matter, blended cement concrete with the incorporation of fibers has been introduced to suit the current requirements. Plain concrete has good compressive strength but has low tensile strength, low ductility and low fire resistance. To circumvent these shortcomings, extensive research by concrete technologist has led them to find a very promising concrete material called as fiber reinforced concrete. A lot of research work has been done and is going on the use of steel fibers and also fly ash as cement replacement in enhancing different properties of concrete. Research work done by different researchers is discussed here in brief.
