Abstract
Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a highly flowable, self levelling concrete. Just as in Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC), fibres can be incorporated into SCC also to get FRSCC. In the present study hybrid fibres namely, Polypropylene and hooked ended Steel fibres are incorporated in different volume fractions and their fresh and hardened state properties have been studied. Fly ash and Silica Fume obtained as waste from industries are used as replacement for cement, the replacement being 10% and 5% respectively. The behaviour of HFRSCC under compression, tension and flexure has been experimentally observed. The stress-strain behaviour of SCC and HFRSCC have also been studied by varying the combinations of volume fractions of hybrid fibres. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
