Steel Fiber reinforced concrete
BDR SteelFibreCrete
Steel fibre reinforced concrete for superior flexural performance
BDR SteelFibreCrete is a steel fibre reinforced concrete engineered to deliver enhanced flexural and tensile strength, enabling it to efficiently withstand flexural stresses and rolling loads. This performance is achieved through the addition of high-grade steel fibres that are uniformly dispersed throughout the concrete matrix.
The steel fibres act as an integral reinforcement system, improving the load-carrying capacity of concrete, which is otherwise weak in tension. BDR SteelFibreCrete distributes tensile stresses uniformly across the section, improving durability, fatigue resistance, and crack control.
Special Features
- Efficiently carries flexural and rolling loads
- Uniform distribution of tensile stresses across the section
Applications
- Industrial floors requiring high impact resistance
- Warehouse floors and showrooms
- Pavements subjected to heavy loads
- Parking lots, podium slabs, and screeds
Advantages
- Reduces or eliminates the need for conventional reinforcement bars in flooring
- Eliminates inventory cost associated with steel reinforcement bars
- Reduces labor cost related to steel fixing work
- Saves construction time
- Increases flexural strength and impact resistance of floors
- High fatigue resistance
- Reduces cracking due to its 3D interlocking fibre structure
Technical Properties
- Flexural Strength: Up to 9 MPa
- Fibre Type: Hooked-end cold-drawn steel fibres
- Slump: 100–150 mm
Special Instructions
- Concrete must be used within the stipulated design period
