Abstract
Using different fiber types together, called hybrid fiber reinforced concrete, may cause a mutual synergic response between fiber matrixes. Due to these synergic effects of different fiber combinations, the mechanical behavior of concrete may perform differently than single fiber reinforced concrete. In this study, the effects of fiber hybridization in the direct tension behavior of concrete mixtures obtained by using three different types of steel fiber and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber were investigated. In this scope, total of 50 dog bone shaped, notched specimens were cast for 10 different mixtures and tested under direct tension. Average tensile stress-crack width responses of concrete specimens were investigated. It was found that the addition of PVA fiber to 35 mm long single hook end and 60 mm long double hook end steel fiber mixtures with a volume ratio of 0.75% did not considerably change the tensile behavior post cracking. As a result of adding PVA fibers to 60 mm single hook steel fiber mixtures with a volume ratio of 1.25%, cracking stresses were decreased and post cracking behavior was adversely affected. Addition of PVA fibers to 60 mm single hook steel fiber mixture with 0.75% volumetric ratio was found to increase post cracking stress levels.
