Summary: | The article presents the regularities of the flexural and compressive strength variation, as well as the energy intensity of destruction of light heat-shielding vermiculite concrete, depending on the content of polypropylene or basalt fiber. The paper stresses that the greatest increase in flexural strength of 40% is observed at the polypropylene or basalt fiber that the greatest increase in flexural strength of 40% is observed at the polypropylene or basalt fiber of 2 and 2-4% respectively. As the basalt fiber content increases from 1 to 4%, the compressive strength increases from 42 to 83%. The resistance of vermiculite concrete to dynamic bending loads when the polypropylene fiber ranges from 0.5 to 2% by a factor of 2.5 4.2. With basalt fiber content of 1 to 4% the energy intensity of destruction increases 1.5 2.5 times.Specific energy intensity of destruction of samples reinforced with basalt fiber increases by 2.3 รท 2.7 times during volumetric destruction of the specimens under study on a vertical pile driver. The regularities obtained in the course of the studies indicate that fiber reinforcement of light heat-shielding vermiculite concrete increase its strength characteristics and thereby expand the scope of its application. |
