Mechanical and durability properties of high-strength concrete containing steel and polypropylene fibers
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the addition of steel and polypropylene fibers on the mechanical and some durability properties of high-strength concrete (HSC) was investigated, and the results showed that the incorporation of 1% steel fiber significantly enhanced the splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of concrete.
