Experimental Study of Mechanical Properties of Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) in Composite Structure
摘要
This research includes the problem of bonding between the shear connectors and the concrete around them, so it was suggested to produce the ECC and replace it in place of the normal concrete. The mix proportion of normal concrete was cement, silica sand, gravel, fly ash, and water (1:2:3:0.125:0.47) the superplasticizer was (0.2%). The mix proportion of ECC mortar was cement, fine silica sand, fly ash, and water (1:0.8:0.25:0.37) the superplasticizer was (0.325%), and the amount of P.V.A fiber was 1.5% by volume. Twelve samples were cast for each mix to evaluate the compressive, flexural, tensile, and splitting strength of normal concrete and ECC mortar. The dry and saturated density was measured for normal concrete and ECC mortar. The shear connectors used are bolts with different size diameters and different numbers of bolts on each sample to investigate the bonding effect between shear connectors and the mixes around them in the push-out test.
