A finite element model is developed to investigate the behaviour of ultra-high-performance steel fibre–reinforced concrete columns under combined axial compression and horizontal monotonic push loading. The effects of steel fibre content, axial compression ratio, reinforcement ratio (or rebar ratio), stirrup ratio and shear span ratio on the structural behaviour of ultra-high-performance steel fibre–reinforced concrete columns are investigated in detail. The numerical model shows good agreement in bond–slip behaviour of specimens based on CEB model results and numerical results, and such behaviour should be taken into consideration in engineering practice. The results indicate that the developed finite element model could predict the structural behaviour and failure mode of ultra-high-performance steel fibre–reinforced concrete columns effectively. It is found that the reinforcement ratio, axial compression ratio, shear span ratio and volume fraction of steel fibre have a great influence on both the structural behaviour and failure modes of specimens.

Aramid Fabrics

Thin plates made of Ultra-High-Performance Steel-Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (UHPSFRC) with textile Aramid fabrics were subjected to a projectile impact and its post-test damage was discussed. The damage degrees were the type of the response and crater surface, which was determined by using a 3D scanner. The most common type of ammunition, which is a 7.62 × 39mm calibre with a full-metal jacket and a mild-steel core, was used for all specimens. It was verified experimentally that the UHP-SFRC with textile Aramid fabrics has a better ballistic performance in comparison with its counterpart made of the UHP-SFRC without any textile reinforcement. Also, it was verified that specimens with the point or segment interconnection threads between the front side textile fabrics and rear side textile fabrics have a higher resistance due to the better integrity of the monolithic UHP-SFRC mixture.

Previous research studies have indicated that using fibres to improve crack resistance and applying expansive agent (EA) to compensate shrinkage are both effective methods to mitigate shrinkage cracking of concrete, and the additions of both fibres and EA can enhance the other performance attributes of concrete. In this study, an EA was added to fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) to produce concrete mixes with various water/binder (W/B) ratios, steel fibre (SF) contents and EA contents for testing of their workability and compressive properties. The test results showed that adding EA would slightly increase the superplasticiser (SP) demand and decrease the compressive strength, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio, but significantly improve the toughness and specific toughness of the steel FRC produced. Such improvement in toughness may be attributed to the pre-stress of the concrete matrix and the confinement effect of the SFs due to the expansion of the concrete and the restraint of the SFs against such expansion.
