The influence of steel and polypropylene fibers on the resistance to compression of concrete is evaluated. NTP 339.034 and ASTM C39 were used to test compressive strength in four groups with a total of 48 specimens distributed in a... more
In this study, the application of high performance polymer fibers (HPP fibers), called Barchip , that are a kind of polypropylene fiber in concrete lining of water pressure tunnels, was investigated experimentally. A comparison between... more
Synthetic fibers are generally produced with circular cross sectional shapes. Other cross sectional shaped fibers such as trilobal, triangular, hollow and pentagonal fibers are also produced to improve some properties of fibers and... more
Bu çalışma, Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi Mühendislik - Mimarlık Fakültesi Tekstil Mühendisliği Bölümü’ndeki TM417 Bitirme Projesi-II dersi kapsamında “Polipropilen Halı İpliği Üreten Bcf Makinası ve İşlem Parametrelerinin İplik... more
Concrete sleeper as an important component of superstructure has a significant role in the appropriate performance of ballasted tracks; Consequently, railroad companies of the world are willing to increase the strength of concrete... more
In this paper, Nominal Mix Self Compacting Concrete (NMSCC) and Fiber Reinforced Self Compacting Concrete (FRSCC) are compared in terms of its fresh and hardened properties. For this purpose, M20 SCC mix design has been done using BIS... more
The demand of natural sand is quite high as there is an extensive use of concrete in world. This demand is being fulfilled by excessive instream sand mining which causes the degradation of rivers and creating ecological imbalance. Due to... more
The concurrent effects of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and polypropylene fibers (PPF) on workability of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) are not quantified in literature. Different SCC series containing 25% to 100% RCA and 0.25% to... more
The term soil stabilization means the improvement of the stability or bearing power of the soil by the use of controlled compaction, proportioning and the addition of suitable admixture or stabilizer, but the stabilization using waste... more
This research submits theoretical and experimental realization of shear behavior of RC
The paper deals with the effects of addition of various proportions of polypropylene fibers on the properties of concrete. Main objectives of this experimental investigation is to characterize the selected mechanical properties of PPFRC... more
The main objective of this study is to investigate the use of fiber materials in geotechnical applications and to evaluate the effects of polypropylene fibers and brick powder (demolition brick masonry waste) with various percentage of... more
The use of maleic anhydride (MA) coupling agent in polypropylene (PP) matrix system is promising technique to enhance the fibre-matrix interface in composite applications. However, most of the previous studies are focused on either... more
Nowadays, the advantages of short fibers as reinforcement in cement based materials are well known. In this paper, the effect of hybridization of short polypropylene (PP) and carbon fibers on flexural properties of a fine aggregate... more
Plain unreinforced Concrete has good compressive strength but it tends to be brittle and is weak in tensile strength. Fiber reinforcement is useful in controlling cracks, enhancing toughness, providing post crack ductility, improving... more
Concrete is an ancient material of construction, first used during Roman Empire. Concrete is the second most consumed substance in the world after water. Plastic is a common material which finds its application in day today life. Lack of... more
From industrial point of view, recently a great attention has been paid to the use of additives such as steel and polypropylene fibers in concrete and cement products. Investigations have revealed that the addition of steel and... more
This manuscript aims to describe the dif erent elements involved in the phenomenon of concrete cracking, and to discover the impact of the addition of plastic grains of type (PVC) coming from industrial waste and polypropylene fibers (PP)... more
Like concrete, Shotcrete poorly performs when subjected to tension; therefore, it experiences displacements and breaking when it is exposed to tensile loadings-adding fibers to concrete increases the ductility of Shotcrete. For this... more
To shorten construction period, to assure compaction in the structure especially in confined zones where vibrating compaction is difficult and to eliminate noise due to vibration effective especially at concrete products plants SCC is... more
Fiber reinforcement technique is a new method to soil improvement, which can improve the mechanical properties of soil effectively. Unconfined compression strength (UCS) tests have been made to investigate strength characteristics and the... more
Abstract. Since 2010 the Author has conducted the research in developing a new generation of concrete, well-known as Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC), using local materials in Indonesia, which consist of Ordinary Portland Cement SNI... more
Transportation engineering play a vital role in the developing of a society and a country. It's actually deal with the planning, designing, operating and managing different types of facilities for all modes of transportation to provide... more
Nowadays, the advantages of short fibers as reinforcement in cement based materials are well known. In this paper, the effect of hybridization of short polypropylene (PP) and carbon fibers on flexural properties of a fine aggregate... more
AbstractIn this study, the usability of raw rice husk (RRH) instead of polypropylene fibers (PP) in high-strength concrete was investigated to prevent spalling, improve mechanical, physical, and thermophysical properties of concrete after... more
Feedback from the various research studies conducted on high-performance concretes "BHP" shows that drying shrinkage is at the origin of the various cracks that develop over time in this type of concrete, given the large volume of the... more
