A high-strength Concrete structure is what everyone tries to achieve through the project. So many studies are being studied with various types of fibers. In this paper, I have used PVA fibers with two different types of plasticizers. The main purpose of this study is to find the amount of plasticizer to be used and which is feasible to be used for different proportions of PVA fibers. We have casted 0.125%, 0.250%, 0.375%, and 0.50% of PVA fiber in the proportion of the weight of cement. We have also studied their compressive strength and split tensile strength. By which we have decided the optimum dosage of plasticizes to be used for the different proportions of PVA fiber.

With the wide application of high strength concrete in the building construction,the risk making concrete subject to high temperatures during a fire is increasing. Comparison tests on the mechanical properties of high strength concrete (HSC) and normal strength concrete (NSC) after the action of high temperature were made in this article, which were compared from the following aspects: the peak stress, the peak strain, elasticity modulus, and stress-strain curve after high temperature. Results show that the laws of the mechanical properties of HSC and NSC changing with the temperature are the same. With the increase of heating temperature, the peak stress and elasticity modulus decreases, while the peak strain grows rapidly. HSC shows greater brittleness and worse fire-resistant performance than NSC, and destroys suddenly. The research and evaluation on the fire-resistant performance of HSC should be strengthened during the structural design and construction on the HSC buildings.

High strength concrete (HSC) characterized by high compressive strength but lower ductility compared to normal strength concrete. This low ductility limits the benefit of using HSC in building safe structures. Nanomaterials have gained increased attention because of their improvement of mechanical properties of concrete. In this paper we present an experimental study of the flexural behavior of reinforced beams composed of high-strength concrete and nanomaterials. Eight simply supported rectangular beams were fabricated with identical geometries and reinforcements, and then tested under two third-point loads. The study investigated the concrete compressive strength (50 and 75 N/mm2) as a function of the type of nanomaterial (nanosilica, nanotitanium and nanosilica/nanotitanium hybrid) and the nanomaterial concentration (0%, 0.5% and 1.0%). The experimental results showed that nano particles can be very effective in improving compressive and tensile strength of HSC, nanotitanium is more effective than nanosilica in compressive strength. Also, binary usage of hybrid mixture (nanosilica + nanotitanium) had a remarkable improvement appearing in compressive and tensile strength than using the same percentage of single type of nanomaterials used separately. The reduction in flexural ductility due to the use of higher strength concrete can be compensated by adding nanomaterials. The percentage of concentration, concrete grade and the type of nanomaterials, could predominantly affect the flexural behavior of HSRC beams.

This paper presents the flexural and splitting tensile strength of high strength concrete (HSC) with diatomite micro particles (DMP) as a mineral additive. In order to have micro particles, the diatomite from Aceh Besar District was ground and sieved with sieve size of 250 mm. The particles were then calcined at the temperature of 600 °C for 5 hours. Four mixtures were designed with different DMP to binder ratio (DMP/b). The ratio was 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, and the water to binder ratio was 0.3. Four beam specimens with a size of 10 cm × 10 cm × 40 cm and four cylinder-specimens with 10 cm diameter and 20 cm high were prepared for each mixture. Flexural and splitting tensile tests were conducted based on ASTM C78 and ASTM C496/496M. The maximum flexural strength was reached at DMP/b of 5% while the maximum splitting tensile strength was reached at DMP/b of 0%.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study residual mechanical properties of Ultra-High-Strength concrete with different dosages of glassified micro-bubble after exposure to high temperature. After exposure to different target temperatures (room temperature, 200 °C, 400 °C, 600 °C,800 °C), residual mechanical properties (residual compressive strength, residual tensile splitting strength, residual fracture energy) of Ultra-High-Strength concrete under different conditions including 1 water-binder ratios (0.18), 3 different contents of glassified micro-bubble (0%, 40%, 60%) were all investigated. The effect of different dosage of glassified micro-bubble was studied on residual mechanical properties of Ultra-High-Strength concrete after exposure to high temperature. The results indicate that the variations of different kinds of Ultra-High-Strength concrete with different dosage of glassified micro-bubble are basically the same. With the increase of temperature, the residual mechanical properties increase at first, then decrease. The residual mechanical properties decrease after exposure to high temperature of 800 °C.
