Experimental Study on Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete Moderate Deep Beam

Abstract

In this study, the result of glass fiber reinforced moderate deep beam with and without stirrups have been presented. Six tee beams of constant overall span and depth 150mm, 200mm, 250mm, 300mm with span to depth (L/D) ratios of 4,3,2.4, &2 and glass fibers of 12mm cut length and diameter 0.0125mm added at volume fraction of 0%, 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% & 1 %.The beams wear tested under two point loads at mid span. The results showed that the addition of glass fiber significantly improved the compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, shear stress and ductility of reinforced moderate deep beam without stirrups
