Self-compacting concrete (SCC) has been widely used in construction industry because of its economic and technical benefits. But SCC has intrinsic low ductility and poor toughness which restrict the fields of application of SCC. The disadvantage of SCC can be avoided by reinforcing with randomly distributed discontinuous fibers. This paper focuses on the experimental investigation carried out on fiber reinforced self-compacting concrete (FRSCC). The effect of type and content of fibers on the mechanical properties was experimentally investigated. The test results indicate that the addition of fibers can significantly improve the ductility and flexural toughness of FRSCC.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
