Abstract

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative construction material. It does not require vibration for placing and compaction. It is able to flow under its own weight, completely filling formwork and achieving full compaction, even in the presence of congested reinforcement. The addition of fibers to self-compacting concrete (SCC) can enhance its physical and mechanical properties as it does in case of traditional concrete mixes parallel with the noticeable effect of the required workability required to achieve self-compacting concrete requirements. This study investigates the ability to produce of fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete (FRSCC) as well as its properties in both fresh and hardened states. Two different types of fibers (Steel and polypropylene) with different fiber volume fractions have been conducted (0.25 % - 2.0 %). Test results showed the ability of producing (FRSCC) with local materials. The fresh properties required for SCC mixes have been achieved up to a certain level of fibers according to the fiber type. The investigated hardened properties have proven for the benefits of adding fibers to SCC mixes.
