What is Investigation of Mechanical Properties of Red Pine Needle Fiber Reinforced Self-compacting Ultra High Performance Concrete about?

With the increasing effects of global warming, the use of natural materials in engineering studies is increasing. In engineering construction, on the other hand, the use of natural fibers as concrete additives in order to reduce carbon emissions and protect the green environment is the focus of the studies. It is possible to increase ductility with the use of fiber in self-compacting ultra high performance concrete. The use of natural fibers provides an environmentally friendly approach. Therefore, in this study, the effect of red pine needles on the mechanical properties of selfcompacting ultra high performance concrete was investigated. Pine needles were divided into 30, 40 and 50 mm length. The red pine needles were purified from organic matter with alkaline solution. It was added into the self-compacting ultra high performance concrete at the rates of 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1.00% by volume. Slump-flow test, v-funnel test, compressive strength test, flexural strength test, freeze-thaw test, sulfate attack test were applied to examine the mechanical properties of the samples. In the sample with a length of 30 mm and a fiber content of 0.50%, the slump-flow test results decreased
