Material properties of the concrete

The paper's contributions can extend to optimizing concrete mixtures, formulating repair strategies, and improving structural assessments. Further research is suggested to improve the accuracy of simulations and investigate material properties under various conditions.

In the design of engineering structures, concrete is assumed to have homogeneously mechanical properties. However, in reality, the concrete material is usually not uniform with respect to the height of structures because segregation mostly occurs during construction. The higher density is presented at, the lower part of the structure due to a higher proportion of aggregate and vice versa.

Once the mechanical properties of printed TPU are characterised, a novel, low cost, and environmentally friendly method for concrete casting using printed TPU moulds is proposed in this thesis. Additively manufactured TPU mould is developed to cast complex concrete structures. A planar topologically optimized cantilever and a free-form 3D column are cast using the proposed TPU mould. Good surface quality is obtained for the cast concrete elements, and the moulds can be reused many times after cleaning.

Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) is a multiple-composite material developed during the early 1970s. In SFRC, short steel fibers are randomly distributed in concrete. Steel fibers can prevent the development of micro-cracks inside the concrete and reduce the expansion and development of the macro-cracks, thus enhance mechanical performance of SFRC. However, there is lack of studies on the influence of flowability of fresh SFRC on the steel fiber distribution patterns and mechanical properties of hardened SFRC.

Tensile properties of strain-hardening fiber-reinforced concrete are the key engineering parameters in determining bending resistance of the material. In this paper, an analytical model to predict tensile properties of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete, a type of strain-hardening fiber-reinforced concretes, was performed based on single fiber pullout test.
