Multidirectional double punch test to assess the post-cracking behaviour and fibre orientation of FRC
TLDR
In this paper, an alternative to the conventional tests applied for the characterization of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is proposed, which consists of a double punch test applied to a cubic specimen.About:

Comparison of the structural behavior of reinforced concrete and steel fiber reinforced concrete tunnel segmental joints
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance-based engineering (PBE) concept was introduced to assess the robustness of the tested segmental joints with steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) joints.

Fibre distribution in macro-plastic fibre reinforced concrete slab-panels
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of flowability and wall-effects of the formwork in the orientation pattern of macro-plastic fibres was studied, and the results showed that plastic fibres tend to be oriented parallel to the walls or surfaces of a formwork and perpendicular to the flow direction for a free surface flow.

Design of FRC tunnel segments considering the ductility requirements of the Model Code 2010
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a critical analysis of the design of FRC segments according to the ductility requirements from the Model Code 2010; an alternative approach is proposed that is compatible with the condition found in some tunnels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the potential of functionally graded concrete using fibre reinforced and recycled aggregate concrete
TL;DR: FGC, even though showing a post-cracking flexural performance lower than conventional FRC, possesses high potential in terms of structural design based on Model Code 2010 specifications, and presents a good prospect to be used as structural material for future sustainable concrete elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constitutive model for fibre reinforced concrete based on the Barcelona test
TL;DR: In this paper, a formulation to predict the tensile behaviour of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is developed based on the results of the Barcelona test, which is validated by simulating results of an experimental program involving different types of fibres and fibre contents by means of finite element software.
