Popis: | In this study, the effect of maximum size of aggregate on impact resistance of fiber reinforced concrete were investigated. Using crushed limestone aggregate with 10, 15, 20 and 25 mm of maximum size, 8 different normal-steel fiber reinforced concretes were produced. Water/cement ratio and cement dosage of concrete mixtures are 0.5 and 400 kg/m3, respectively. Hooked-end bundled steel fibers with l/d ratio of 65 and 1.0% fiber volume were used in fiber concretes. After 28 days standard curing, compressive strength, split tensile strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity tests were performed on 150/150/150 mm cube specimens. Additionally, impact resistances of concrete specimens were determined using impact test apparatus described in ACI 544.3R-93. 150x300 mm cylinders were prepared for impact resistance tests. After 28 days curing, these specimens were cut and 150x64 mm special discs were prepared. Impact resistance test were performed on these special discs. Experimental results were evaluated corresponding to presence of steel fiber and aggregate maximum size. |
