Performance of Fiber Reinforced Self-Compacting Concrete Containing Different Pozzolanic Material: State of the Art

Abstract: Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a kind of concrete mix that eliminate the required for the vibration tools as their high fluidity and moderate viscosity during the fresh qualities Fiber reinforcement mainly enhances the post-cracking qualities of concrete and gains inside a more ductile material behavior, several studies have produced a brand new idea to increase the concrete ductility and it is energy absorption capacity, to be able to improve overall ductility. The fiber reinforced self-compacting concrete (FR-SCC) is concrete mix getting the benefits of both SCC using the fibers to enhancing and increasing its properties. This research project aimed to study the effect of different fibers such as steel, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and chopped basalt fiber on the properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC); the properties are workability and hardened while the work have been extended to replacing the cement content by different cement replacement material (CRM) to form different binder content and that to reduce the total cost and improve the fresh behavior of FR-SCC with increasing the strength after long time.
