Effect of Different Positions of Steel Fibers on Strength of Concrete

Abstract

In this project we have used steel fibers, which are straight and circular in shape and placed in different forms (i.e Horizontal, Staggered, and Vertical). The aim of our project is to use the Steel Fibers with different positions as Fiber reinforcement to concrete. objective is to add the Steel fibers of 1mm guage diameter to the concrete and to study the strength properties of concrete with the variation in fiber position. i.e., to study the strength properties of concrete (M20 Grade) for fiber content of 1.0% by weight at 7days and 28 days. The compressive strength being studied in our project. And then this compressive strength compared with plain concrete.
