Abstract

Extensive experimental investigation on recron fiber with fly ash reinforced concrete was carried out by researchers. Recron fiber mesh is more effective in resisting bending and punching shear. Recron Fibers are most popular metallic fibers used for the production of Recron Fiber Reinforced Concrete particularly from the point of view of strength and ductility. Experiments were conducted for both Ordinary Concrete and Recron Fibre Concrete with different percentages of Recron fibers. An experimental investigation is to study the variation in strength characteristics of concrete structural elements, for the proportion of M20 grade. In each mixes containing different percentages of fly ash is replaced by means of cement starting from 0% as normal concrete, i.e. controlled concrete 10%, 20%, and 30%, and two percentages of natural Recron fibers 0.25% and 0.5% the number of specimens cast for each case It was observed that as the addition of recent fibers to concrete mix increases, the workability of concrete mix was found to decrease as compared to control mix. At an optimum dosage of RF, the increase in compressive strength of recron fiber concrete mixes compared with control mix of concrete at 28 days compressive strength is observed from 17% to 25%. The percentage increase of split tensile strength of recron fiber concrete mixes compared with control mix at 28 days is observed from 17 to 20% for 0.25%+10 recron fibers by weight of a binder. The addition of recron fibers into the concrete mixture marginally improves the compressive strength at 28 days. It is observed from the experimental results and its analysis, that the compressive strength of concrete, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength of concrete increases with the addition of low Percentage of return fibers. The 0.25%+10 addition of recron fibres into the concrete shows a better result in mechanical properties.
