Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete
Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is a type of concrete that incorporates steel fibers into the mix to enhance its mechanical properties, particularly its tensile strength, ductility, and crack resistance.n
Components:
- Cement: Acts as the binder.
- Aggregates: Includes sand, gravel, or crushed stone.
- Water: Activates the cement to form the paste.
- Superplasticizers: High-range water reducers that increase the fluidity of the mix without compromising strength
- Viscosity Modifying Agents (VMAs): Stabilize the mix and prevent segregation.
- Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs): Such as fly ash, slag, or silica fume, to enhance workability and durability.
