Pengaruh Penggunaan Serat Baja Terhadap Flexural Toughness Reactive Powder Concrete

Abstract

This research present flexural toughness behavior of local steel fiber reinforced reactive powder concrete produced with different steel fibers volume fraction and aspect ratio. Prismatic concrete specimens of 100 x 100 x 350 mm were prepared with and without steel fiber. Steel fiber was used of 0% (control), 1,0%, 1,5%, and 2,0% by volume and 75, 100 and 125 as aspect ratio. Specimens were de-molded after 24 hours and cured in water until 3 days, after that the speciments were cure by steam curing for 8 hours at 90°C. Flexural toughness of the prisms has been defined at 28 day old. The result show that the effects of fibre volume and aspec ratio on flexural toughness of reactive powder concrete are very significant.
