Influence of experimental variables on the mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) in chloride degradation experiments: bibliographic review and statistical analysis
Abstract
The objective of this research is to evaluate the effect of experimental variables in the study of chloride degradation of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRCs). The information was collected from different literary sources to later be treated through Taguchi's experimental design and regression analysis. The results show that the most influential factors in the degradation of SFRCs degraded by chloride are the load during degradation and the crack width, factors that statistically impact on residual resistance and maximum flexural load. However, others such as the water/cement ratio, fiber volume, chloride concentration and degradation time showed little influence on the mechanical response of the SFRCs.
