Abstract

This paper gives a review on concrete by adding various types of steel fibre, glass fibre and recron fibre into the concrete and to make comparison of test results. The sudden application of the lateral load demands for a flexible structure which under goes large inelastic deformation during the load. One of the techniques to achieve the ductile structure by adding fibre in the concrete. The addition of the fibre can considerably improve the strength and ductility of structural components, resulting in a considerable energy absorption capacity. In this thesis, an experimental examination of the behaviour of internal beam-column joints under seismic circumstances is given according to IS: 13920–1993. RC, SFRC, HFRC-1, and HFRC-2 are the four internal beam column joint specimens in the experimental programme. The load bearing capacity, load–deflection behaviour, stiffness degradation factor, energy dissipation capacity, ductility factor, and cracking properties of internal beam column joints are investigated. Important inferences will be formed based on the experimental results, and the benefit of employing fibres in the beam column joint region will be well proven.
