Abstract:The effects of nano-SiO2 mass fraction,steel fiber volume fraction,notch depth on fracture parameters and load-deflection curves of the nano-SiO2 and steel fiber reinforced concrete specimens were investigated and analyzed through the three-point bending test.The results indicate that the addition of nano-SiO2 and steel fiber can improve the fracture toughness of the specimens with the appropriate fraction.When nano-SiO2 mass fraction is less than 5 %,the fracture toughness is increased gradually with the increase of nano-SiO2 mass fraction.While,the fracture toughness begins to decrease with the increase of nano-SiO2 mass fraction after nano-SiO2 mass fraction exceeds 5 %.With the increase of steel fiber volume fraction,the fracture toughness is increased.The fracture toughness of the specimens decreases with the increase of the notch depth.
