| Abstract: | Ageing effects on both uniaxial tensile and shrinkage behaviour of new green cementitious composites reinforced with bagasse fibre and steel fibre with ultra-high volume of fly ash are investigated in this paper. The tensile behaviour of the composites is investigated at the age of 28 days, 3 months, 6 months and 10 months after curing in weather conditions. Restrained shrinkage behaviour of the composites after curing for 3 months is tested on ring specimens. SEM tests are also conducted to study the influence of the ageing on the microstructure of the new composites. The test results show that the tensile strength of the composites at all ages increases with the decrease of the content of the fly ash and the bagasse fibre, and that the increasing application of fly ash and bagasse fibre decreases the steel ring strain and restrains the development of crack. It is also found that the tensile strength and the shrinkage of the composites such as crack width ascend greatly with time. |
