Experimental and numerical Investigation on behavior of Reinforced slurry infiltrated fibrous Concrete structural members

Abstract

newline Slurry Infiltrated Fibrous Concrete SIFCON an exceedingly newlineimproved version of conventional fibre reinforced concrete FRC is a high newlineperformance concrete endowed with unique properties in the areas of both newlinestrength and ductility The primary constituents of SIFCON are steel fibres newlineand cementbased slurry SIFCON is cast using a preplacing technique in newlinewhich fibres are placed in the mould or on a substratum and infiltrated with newlinecement based slurry The amount of fibres that can be incorporated depends newlineon fibre aspect ratio fibre geometry and placement technique newline
