In this paper an experimental campaign aiming to assess the cracking behaviour of flexural members made with Self Compacting Concrete and reinforced with both rebars and steel fibres recycled from End-of-Life-Tyres is presented. The characteristics, constructability and performance of this new type of fibres are first discussed. Then, the results of the tests carried out are presented and discussed. The parameters that have been investigated are ?/?s,ef, concrete cover and fibre content. The results obtained show improvement in cracking behaviour, especially for low reinforcement ratio and large covers. Results are then compared with the predictions of recently published Model Code 2010. The main objective of this investigation is the evaluation of the efficiency of a new type of fibre technology for crack width control of RC elements, with advantages in sustainability from the point of view of recycling and durability. | |
