Effects of Cooling Water Temperature on Physical and Mechanical Properties of SFRC

Abstract

Cooling water temperature is one of the important factors which effects the mixing process and cooling water temperature of SFRC greatly. The effects of different cooling water temperature on mixing process of SFRC have been researched by experiments. In the paper, the cooling water temperature was changed from 20°C to 50°C respectively. And also the addition of short fibers was about 0phr∼6phr. The experimental results indicated that SFRC had better physical and mechanical properties as cooling water temperature was about 40°C, and the addition of short fibers was about 3phr.
