Development of 3D printable engineered cementitious composites with ultra-high tensile ductility for digital construction
Open accessAbstract
The current 3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology is limited by the reinforcing methods. Conventional steel reinforcement is hard to be incorporated in the 3DCP process. To overcome this limitation, this study aims to develop 3D-printable engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) exhibiting ultra-high tensile strain capacity of more than 8%, which can be used for digital construction of ‘self-reinforced’ concrete structures, reducing the reliance on the conventional steel reinforcement. Different volume fractions of polyethylene fibers (1%, 1.5% and 2%) were used to reinforce the ECC matrix. The fresh properties (including the workability, rheological properties and buildability) and the hardened properties (including the compressive and flexural strengths, and the uniaxial tensile performance), along with the microstructure of the developed 3D printable ECCs were experimentally investigated. Conventionally mold-cast ECCs were also prepared and tested for comparison purposes. The results showed that the developed 3D printable PE-ECCs exhibited strong strain-hardening behavior with the tensile strength and tensile strain capacity of up to 5.7 MPa and 11.4%, respectively. In addition, the results showed that the 3D printed PE-ECCs exhibited superior tensile performance to the conventionally mold-cast PE-ECC counterparts. This finding is in good agreement with the results of the microstructural analysis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
