Study on Mechanical Properties and Pore Structure of Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Rubber Concrete

In this work, to reduce the probability of brittle failure in the support structure of deeply buried high-stress soft rock roadways, hybrid-fiber reinforced rubber concrete (HFRRC) was investigated using the orthogonal test, and the effects of various factors on the performance were studied. The mec...

The mechanical properties, pore structure, and microstructure of rubber concrete reinforced by basalt fiber (BF) and polyvinyl alcohol fiber (PF) were studied from macroscale, mesoscale, and microscale perspectives. The results revealed that the content of the rubber particles has a significant impact on strength. Further, the addition of the hybrid fibers to the concrete was found to have a positive effect on the splitting tensile strength and the flexural strength.
