polypropylene fibre - Opis:
- When evaluating concrete, its strength is the most important feature from the practical point of view. In compliance with technological requirements, the strength of concrete depends primarily on its composition, mainly on the content and strength of cement slurry. This is because this concrete component is most susceptible to changes in working conditions in a construction, including high temperature impact on concrete during the fire. The paper presents the results of tests performed on the cement mortar with and without the addition of polypropylene fibers. This treatment allowed for the elimination of the effect of the coarse aggregate by reason of the accuracy of the tested strength characteristics. The studies concerned the impact of high temperature on the change in tensile strength of cement mortars modified with the addition of polypropylene fibers. The analysis of available literature shows that one of the main causes of concrete’s thermal spalling is seen in high tensile stresses. The results of many tests prove that the addition of polypropylene fibers can have a positive effect on the behavior of concrete structures at high temperatures and help reduce spalling. The polypropylene fibers present in a composite may also positively influence the increase in tensile strength. This article discusses the purpose and scope of research, research methods, the experiment plan, test benches, and test results as well. The conclusions of the study were formulated in the final part of the article.
