Abstract

This article describes experimental research of the interfacial adhesion of triple blended steel fibre self-compacting concrete (TBSFSCC) and it varies depending on the percentage of steel fibre. In self-compacting concrete, mineral admixtures such as condensed silica fume and flyash are utilised as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs).the percentage of replacement of cement by condensed silica fume at 10 where as flyash at 20 respectively, to meet the SCC criteria stipulated by ACI. The embedment length of a steel bar with a diameter of 12mm was chosen to be 100mm in all of the standard specimens. Fe-415 steel rod is used in this research. The pull-out test in the universal testing machine is used to evaluate the bond strength of this triple blended Self-Compacting Concrete (TBSCC). Ordinary steel fibres are then added to the concrete volume at various percentages, such as 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8. The bond strength, slip, and the method of failure of each rebar were all noted in the test results. The comparison of these results clearly shows that the percentage of steel fibre contributes to the TBSCC bond strength, and conclusions are generated.
