THE DESIGN OF STEEL FIBRE REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES (2001)

In several Nordic universities, research institutes, and companies, researchand development aredevoted to steel fibre reinforced concrete structures. The Swedish Concrete Associationpublished a report on steel fibre reinforced concrete in 1995. At that time, it was considered to be one of the world's most modern and straightforward handbooks on the design of steel fibre reinforced concrete structures. Since then, six years have passed. Several doctoral and licentiate dissertations have been devoted completely or partly to steel fibre reinforced concrete. The material technology has developed further and some new and more advanced computation models have been suggested. Furthermore, new test methods have been developed; especially those dealing with pure tension are interesting since such methods are necessary to improve the understanding of the structural behaviour of steel fibre reinforced concrete. In order to exchange information and new research results, the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) invited to a Nordic workshop on the design of steel fibre reinforced concrete structures in June 2001 in Stockholm. The aim was to provide the attendees with the state of the art on design of steel fibre reinforced concrete structures and to give impact and ideas to the continuing research and development in this area. Since 1975, more than 60 Nordic workshops have been organised by the research committee of the Nordic Concrete Federation. This workshop assembled 27 participants from Denmark, Norway and Sweden. A total number of 14 oral presentations were given. They are all summarised in these proceedings.
