Studying Water to Cement Ratio and Steel Fiber Volume Fraction Effects on the Self-Compacting Steel Fiber-reinforced Concrete Fracture Parameters

In this research, efforts were made to study the effects of water to cement ratio (W/C) and steel fiber volume fraction (V_f (%)) on the fracture parameters of self-compacting steel fiber-reinforced concrete using both Work Fracture and Size Effect Methods. In an experimental program, a variety of w...
