Abstract
Slurry infiltrated fibrous concrete (SIFCON), an exceedingly improved version of conventional fibre reinforced concrete (FRC), is a unique construction material having unique properties in the areas of both strength and ductility. SIFCON being a new kind of fibre reinforced composite material, limited literature is available regarding its application as structural element. In the present study, investigations are carried out to study the behaviour of reinforced concrete beams with SIFCON laminates. Experimental programmes have to be carried out to study the behaviour of flexural and shear RC beams with precast SIFCON laminates. The concrete mixes for RC beams have to be designed to obtain a concrete grade of M20. The steel fibres used in the study were hooked end fibres having 0.5mm diameter and aspect ratio of 60. Fibre volume fraction was 7%. In this project report, the technical papers, related to high performance hybrid steel fibre reinforced concrete and regression analysis published in National and International journals have been reviewed.
