The investigation the influence of the fiber son the evolution of mechanical properties of the concrete affected by high temperature by destructive and non-destructive test method

Abstract

This paper presents an experimental examination of the effect of high temperatures on concrete prepared with different fibers types. For this study the concrete were prepared with four types of fibers (Steel, polypropylene, carbon and the combination of several types of fibers) and water/cement ratio fixed (w/c of 0.35). Specimens were heated under five different temperatures: 20 °C (ambient temperature), of 200 ºC, 300, 400 ºC and 600 ºC respectively. The following settings: compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, rebound hammer, concrete mass loss, and water porosity were examined in this Research experimental. Also A scanning electron microscopy study was used to comprehend the change in texture. The cracks were also examined using a microscope and other methods. This article is a contribution to the general understanding of the impact of fibers in high temperature concrete and highlights the significant impact of different types of fibers on the physical and mechanical properties of concrete who they were explore using destructive and nondestructive methods.
