Laboratory Tests of Concrete Beams Reinforced with Recycled Steel Fibres and Steel Bars

This paper explores the possibility of the partial replacement of the longitudinal reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) beams with recycled steel fibres (RSF). Testing was focused on the contribution of two volume ratios of the RSF—0.5%, 1.0%. Basic compression and flexural tensile tests were p...

description This paper explores the possibility of the partial replacement of the longitudinal reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) beams with recycled steel fibres (RSF). Testing was focused on the contribution of two volume ratios of the RSF—0.5%, 1.0%. Basic compression and flexural tensile tests were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the fibres following current standards. Additionally, the full-scale beams with and without conventional reinforcement were subjected to four-point bending tests. The results indicate that RSF improved the load-bearing capacity of the RC beams. Cooperation of RSF with the steel bars in carrying loads was proved.
