Abstract

The paper presents an experimental study on the flexural performance of Conventional beam (CB), Ternary beam (TB) and fibrous ternary beam (TBF). Ternary beams are made by using 10% of Micro silica (MS) and 30% of Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and Fibrous ternary beams were cast by incorporating crimped steel fibre in four volume fractions i.e. 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% to the predestined optimum ternary mix, was obtained from preliminary studies. The influence of Supplementary cementing materials (SCMs) and steel fibre on ultimate load, energy absorption, ductility, moment and energy factors was assessed. The results reveal that energy absorption and ductility improved by ternary beams and further enhanced by adding up of steel fibre over conventional beams.
