Behaviour of Slurry Infiltrated Hybrid Fiberreinforced Concrete Subjected to Acidic Attack

Abstract

In the present study attempt is made to study the slurry of cement and sand in a proportion of 1:1 was prepared with a water cement ratio of 0.35 SIFCON. Fibers were placed randomly in concrete cubes. Vibration was externally applied with vibrating table after the mould is fully filled. Specimens were kept curing for 60 days in an acidic media and characteristics were studied. Compression strength, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength, Shear strength and impact strength characteristics were studied in the present experimental investigations. It is been found that by adding fibers the characteristics of concrete are increased considerably. In this research work attempts were made to know about weight loss in slurry infiltrated hybrid fiber reinforced concrete subjected to acid attack for different combination and results here compared with respect to the monofibers and hybrid fibers. The Growth in major construction is mainly focusing on fixing problems of improving the efficiency of building industry, economy, and optimum utilization of material and power resources. Due to different property of concrete it will give a variety of new designs. Apart from its flexibility in its use it can be given any shape and other properties such as compressive strength, low thermal conductivity, stiffness etc it is best material for the construction.. To increase its tensile strength fiber are reinforced.
