The primary objectives of this study is to conduct a laboratory investigation to evaluate the intrinsic stress that can cause cracking of concrete mixed recommended by the Florida Department of Transportation with the addition of monofilament and fibrillated polypropylene and monofilament polyolefin fibers, subjected to highly cyclic loading. In addition, the flexural behavior of concrete reinforced with recycled post-consumer in-house made fibers will be study and Finite Element Methods (FEM) following laboratory work would be used to establish comparable numerical models for the flexural test and pavement overlays. |
