Can Fiber Reinforcing Replace Welded Wire Fabric in Concrete Slabs?
I am trying to model fibre cement mortar reinforced with wire mesh using Ansys workbench. The failure surface for a triaxial failure should be defined by using the in the library available. Crimped Steel Fiber blended with multi-length monofilament micro-synthetic fibers View Item For over a century, The Euclid Chemical Company has served the global building market as a worldwide quality supplier of specialty products and technical support services for the concrete and masonry construction industry. The addition of steel fibers to concrete increases the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength by about 9.4%, 29.4% and 39.1%, respectively for M50SF3 composites when compared with non- fibrous concrete of the same grade. A Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software package ANSYS 10.0 is used to analyze the shear capacities and introduce a good concrete model for steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) as well as plain concrete made of brick and stone aggregate. Concrete as a primary mechanism for development of inelastic deformations in the material. The reinforcing steel is uniaxial material which is also “smeared” throughout the concrete. A simplified bilinear model for the stress-strain behavior of steel is used, (Figure 3.).

Opinions differ when considering if synthetic fibers can replace welded wire fabric. What first must be understood is the function of synthetic fibers and welded wire fabric.

As the surface begins to cure faster than the concrete below the surface, tensile stresses build up and shallow microscopic cracks develop in random directions.
If allowed to develop without restraint, these cracks can grow wider and lengthen to become major aesthetic and functional problems.
CRACK DUE TO SUBGRADE PROBLEMS: FIBER ALONE WON’T HELP HERE
CRACKS DUE TO CURING STRESSES: FIBER WOULD HAVE LIMITED THEM GREATLY
Cracks also occur due to excessive flexural stresses brought on by bending when spanning distances. These cracks are considered structural failure cracks and are wider and predictable (not random). These cracks rarely occur in slabs-on-grade but will always occur on elevated slabs if not reinforced with rebar or welded wire fabric. If flexural cracks do develop in slabs-on-grade, there is a problem with the subgrade.
Fiber reinforcing is very good in restricting the initial shrinkage cracking that occurs in the initial stages. Our office, Allegheny Design Services, has examples on exterior slabs-on-grade of over 20 years old, with only fiber reinforcing that still exhibits no cracks. The use of fiber does not have a major effect on the compressive strength of the concrete.
Several types of fiber exist. They include steel, glass, synthetic and natural fibers. Their selection depends on the usage and environment of the finished slab. Consult with the design engineer in selecting the correct type. In all cases, the fiber is considered another admixture and should be submitted with the concrete mix submittal for approval.
Fiber reinforcing has no impact on the air content of concrete compared to the same sample of non-fiber concrete, but the impact on slump is significant. The use of fiber generally will decrease the same sample by 2 inches. In some cases, the use of a high-range water-reducing admixture (HRWRA) may be needed to improve workability.
FIBER MATRIX IN CURED CONCRETE
Getting back to the initial question of whether fiber can replace mesh, we typically say yes–with exceptions. The exceptions are as follows:
1.) Elevated cast-in-place slabs
2.) Elevated slabs on metal deck
3.) Structural slabs-on-grade (mats)Ansys Steel Fiber Concrete Flooring
4.) Where poor subgrade conditions are expected
Keep in mind that if fiber is only used, the subgrade must be properly compacted and prepared in accordance with the geotechnical engineer’s recommendations. Once any differential settlement occurs, the fiber will not prevent cracks from developing and increasing in width.
The dosage will vary based on the type of fiber and end usage of the slab. In all cases, follow the ACI recommendations for spacing of control joints. If sawn, they should be done between 8 and 24 hours after placement.
These are general recommendations. Make sure you consult with a structural engineer for your specific conditions before proceeding.
