Investigation of Properties of Fiber Reinforced Concrete Using Rubber Tyre Tube Wastage as Fibers

Abstract Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is widely used as construction material. Fibers increase the structural integrity of concrete. Steel fibers, glass fibers, synthetic fibers and natural fibers are types of fibers used in FRC. Waste deposition of vehicles tyre after its useful life became critical issue to dispose off. In the present study preliminary investigation […]

Comparison of Stresses for Circular and Rectangular Pre-stressing Plates in Post-Tensioned Anchorage Zone

Abstract This paper presents the case study on 3-dimensional analysis of end block of rectangular post tensioned concrete beam. The end block of post tensioned concrete beam is modelled in finite element based software ANSYS. Concentric prestressing force is applied on two different shapes of plates. A case study is performed in which the loaded […]
