Abstract :

Concrete Is One Of Most Commonly Used Material In The Field Of Construction On Earth. Particularly Nano-silica As Supplementary Cementations Material Offer The Potential Of Producing Materials Enhanced Strength Properties. In This Project, Effect Of Nano Silica Addition On Mechanical Characteristics Of Cement Mortar Is Studied. The Crimped Steel Fibers Used In The Project Are Made Of Stainless Steel. They Are Quite Rigid Materials And This Rigidity Imposes Mechanical Properties Of High Strength Fiber Reinforced Concrete.Firstly Concrete Of 30Mpa Was Designed By Using Cement, Fly Ash, Fine Aggregate, Quartz Powder, Super Plasticizer And Water. Then Nano Silica By Different Weight Percentages (1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, And 4%) Was Added To Determine The Compressive, Split Tensile &flexural Strength. After Determing The Optimum Dosage Of Nano Silica, From Strength Criteria Crimped Steel Fiber With Different Proportions Were Added And Mechanical Properties Were Determined.To Study The Strength Properties Cubes, Cylinders And Beams Of Size 100X100X100mm, 150X300 Mm & 150X150X700mm Are Cast, Tested At 7,14 & 28 Days. At 3% Optimum Dosage Of Nanosilica, Crimped Steel Fiber Were Added And Effect Of Nano Silica And Crimped Steel Fibers Was Studied.
