Preparation and mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete with copper slag as fine aggregate

摘要

High performance concrete is widely used in constructional engineering for its long durability,excellent volume stability,adequate compressive strength and good construction performance.In this paper,a class of high performance concretes are prepared by using copper slag instead of sand as a fine aggregate,and their mechanical properties are tested.Firstly,the high performance concrete specimens with different copper slag content and the steel fiber reinforced ones are individually prepared.Then,the compressive and flexural strength tests for cured high performance concrete specimens are operated according to the CECS13-2009 fiber reinforced concrete test method standard.The test results show that for the high performance concrete with copper slag as fine aggregate,the compressive strength reaches a peak value as the replacement ratio of copper slag to fine sand about 35%,but the flexural strength decreases with increasing copper slag replacement ratio,while for steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete,when the copper slag replacement ratio is about 40%,the concrete has a relatively high compressive strength,flexural strength and toughness.Furthermore,under an equivalent strength condition,the additional steel fiber improves the replacement rate of copper slag in the high performance concrete,so the steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete with copper slag as fine aggregate exhibits a better comprehensive mechanical property.
