Fiber Types (ASTM C1116)
• Type I: Steel– Must meet ASTM A820
• Type II: Glass– Alkali-resistant glass must meet ASTM C1666
• Type III: Synthetic (plastic)– Only polyolefin have a specification: ASTM D7508
• Type IV: Natural– Only cellulose have a specification: ASTM D7357

What fiber dosage do I use?
• Depends on a lot of factors!• We must characterize the performance of the
selected fiber– Prescriptive specifications for exact fiber dosages
are not ideal and do not capture the variations between fiber types
• Typical ranges for FRC decks– Steel: min. 70 lbs/yd3 (min. 0.6% by volume)– Synthetic: 3 – 8 lbs/yd3 (0.2% - 0.6% by volume)

Why FRC bridge decks?
• No cracking• Enhanced structural capacity• Remove rebar

Summary
National Concrete Consortium, Apr 3, 2019 30
• FRC decks almost always utilize steel or synthetic fibers
• FRC decks almost always have fewer and tighter cracks compared to traditional PCC
• Any specifications related to FRC decks should be performance based and not prescriptive
• State-of-the-practice not at point to use fibers to replace steel rebar on a “regular” basis
