Influence of the fresh ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete flowability on its compressive strength

摘要: 钢纤维掺入能提高超高性能纤维增强混凝土(Ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete,UHPFRC)的抗压强度,但削弱新拌浆体的流动性能,降低了对抗压强度的增强效果,且影响UHPFRC的工作性能。为研究这种不利影响,以钢纤维体积分数和长径比为变量,进行了A、B两组试验。A组固定水胶比为0.18,不控制流动性能,主要研究钢纤维对流动性能和抗压强度的影响。试验结果表明,新拌UHPFRC流动性能随钢纤维的体积分数、长径比增加而下降;当钢纤维体积率超过一定值(2.00vol%)时,流动性能明显下降,抗压强度增强效果也相应下降。通过X-ray CT扫描发现钢纤维掺入减弱浆体的自密实能力,导致硬化后的基体内部孔隙尺寸增大和孔隙率增加,进而削弱抗压强度。综合考虑钢纤维掺入对抗压强度的正、负效应,提出了抗压强度的半经验预测公式。B组改变水胶比,控制扩展度为240 mm,对比A组研究流动性能控制后,钢纤维体积分数和长径比对抗压强度的影响规律。结果表明,钢纤维体积分数较大时,增大水胶比,保持一定流动性能,能有效提高纤维的增强效果;钢纤维体积分数较小时,在满足流动性能要求的前提下,减小水胶比,可以进一步提高抗压强度。在UHPFRC配合比设计时,应考虑钢纤维对流动性能的不利影响,以提高纤维的增强效应并保证其良好的工作性能。

Abstract: Steel fiber can reinforce the compressive strength of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC), but it will reduce the flowability of fresh UHPFRC, thus weaken this reinforcement effect and the work performance of UHPFRC. In order to study this adverse effect, two sets of tests A and B were carried out with steel fiber volume fraction and aspect ratio as variables. In the A series test, the fixed water-to-binder ratio was 0.18 and didn’t control the flowability. It mainly studied the effect of steel fiber on flowability and compressive strength. The test results show that the flowability of fresh UHPFRC decreases with the increase of the volume fraction or aspect ratio of steel fiber; when the volume fraction of steel fiber exceeds a certain value (2.00vol%), the expansion degree decreases significantly, and the corresponding compressive strength enhancement effect also decreases. The X-ray CT scan test finds that the incorporation of steel fiber weaken the self-compacting ability of the fresh slurry, increasing in the internal pore size and porosity of the hardened matrix, thereby weakening the compressive strength. Comprehensively considering the positive and negative effects of steel fiber incorporation into compressive strength, a semi-empirical prediction formula for compressive strength was proposed. In the B series test, the water-binder ratio was changed and the expansion degree was controlled to 240 mm. Through comparative analysis of the A series test results, the effect of the volume fraction and aspect ratio of the steel fiber on the compressive strength after the control of the flowability was studied. The results show that when the volume fraction of steel fiber is large, the water-binder ratio should be increased to ensure a certain flowability, which can effectively improve the reinforcement effect of the fiber; when the volume fraction of fiber is small, the water-binder ratio should be decreased on the premise of meeting the flowability requirements, which can further improve the compressive strength. In the design of the UHPFRC mix ratio, in order to improve the reinforcing effect of steel fiber and ensure that UHPFRC has good working performance, the adverse effect of incorporating steel fiber on the flowability of UHPFRC should be considered. -
