Abstract |
In this study, seven R/C beams, designed by the steel fiber with ground granulated blast furnace slag and recycled fine aggregate were constructed and tested under monotonic loading. In the material development, micromechanics was adopted to properly select the optimized range of the composite based on steady-state cracking theory and experimental studies on the matrix and interracial properties. Experimental programs were carried out to improve and evaluate the structural performance of the test specimens: the load-displacement, the failure mode, the maximum strength were assessed. Test results showed that test specimens (BSSR-20, 40, 60, 80) were increased the maximum load carrying capacity by 2~9% and the ductility capacity by 10~22% in comparison with the standard specimen (BSS) respectively. And the specimens (BSSR-100) was decreased the maximum load carrying capacity by 5% and the ductility capacity by 44% in comparison with the standard specimen (BSS) respectively. |
