Abstract

In order to research the application possible of waste fiber steel fiber reinforced concrete in road engineering, the effect of fiber types and strength grade of base concrete on cube compressive strength, splitting strength, flexural-tensile strength and other mechanical properties of waste tires steel fiber and conventional steel fiber reinforced concrete were determined. The results show that: the waste tires steel fiber has a significant enhancement effect on the strength of concrete, and it can be used as green road material as the waste tire powder. The strength of waste steel fiber reinforced concrete is lower than that of conventional steel fiber. To achieve the same strength, the amount of waste tires steel fiber required to be about 40% higher than conventional steel fiber. In addition, the effect of strength grade of base concrete on the growth ratio of flexural tensile strength of waste tires steel fiber reinforced concrete is weak, and the influence on growth ratio of the compressive strength and splitting strength can be neglected.
