Abstract: Extensive research work is in progress throughout
the world in concrete technology to find alternative materials
which can be partially or fully replace of Ordinary Portland
Cement and which can also meet the required strength and
durability, mainly aims at reducing cost and environmental
effects due to cement manufacturing processes.. Inthepresent
study, Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC)of43grade ispartially
replaced by up to 30% of mineral admixtures such as, Fly Ash
(FA), Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), Silica
Fume (SF) and Red mud (RM) by weight of cement used in
making Galvanized Iron (GI) Fibre Reinforced Concrete. GI
Fibre Reinforced Concrete with 0.5% and 1.0% GI-Fibre
content by volume fraction are considered for studyM30 grade
of concrete with a constant Water-Cement ratio of 0.4 has
been used in the work. The workability characteristics are
studied through slump test. The strength characteristics of
Ternary Blended GI Fibre Reinforced Concrete such as,
compressive strength, split tensile strengthandshearstrength
test are compared with Reference Mixes of 0.5% GI-FRC and
1.0% GI-FRC.
In this work, a total of 135 specimen have been cast and
tested at 28 days for Compressive Strength, Split Tensile
Strength and Shear Strength.
The Ternary Blended FRC with 20% Fly Ash and 10%
Silica Fume replacement of cement has yielded maximum
increase in Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength and
Shear Strength compared with Reference Mixes of 0.5% GI-
FRC and 1.0% GI-FRC.

1. Introduction
Concrete is the most abundantly consumed material
which is commonly utilized for the constructionpurposesall
over the world. Many researches are going-on in the area of
Concrete Technology to find alternative materialswhichcan
be partially or fully replace of Ordinary Portland Cement.
Amongst some alternative materials tried for partial
replacement of cement are mineral admixtures like Fly Ash,
Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag, Silica Fume,
Metakaolin, Red mud, Rice Husk Ash etc. Moreover, most of
the mineral admixtures are the by-productmaterialsandthe
use of these materials leads to reduction in waste and
savings in energy consumption required to produce cement
and blended mix concretes. Most recently the production of
multi-blended concretes by incorporating industrial by-
products/pozzolanic materials is becoming an activearea of
research due to their improved properties such as
workability, long-term strength and durability. This leadsto
the development of Ternary Blended Concrete.
2. Objective of Experimental Work
The main objective of this experimental investigation is
to study the Properties of Ternary Blended Fibre Reinforced
Concrete (FRC) by partially replacing OPC with up to 30%of
Fly Ash, GGBFS, Silica Fume and Red mud in different
combinations of three. A design concrete mix of M30 grade
are proposed with a constant Water-Cement ratioof0.4. The
proposed FRC is to have GalvanizedIronFibres(GIFibres)at
0.5% and 1.0% by volume fraction.
Following combinations of cement replacement are
proposed in this work to study theirinfluenceofthestrength
of Ternary Blended GI-FRC.

Conclusions
The following conclusions are drawn fromtheanalysisof
results for various strength tests,
1. The Compressive Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has
shown maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e.,
when Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and
10% Silica Fume for 0.5% and 1.0% GI Fibre content. For
this replacement combination, the increase is 4% for
0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 3.13% for 1.0% GI-FRC of
TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI-
FRC of M30 grade.
2. The Split Tensile Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has
shown maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e.,
when Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and
10% Silica Fume with 0.5% and 1.0% GI Fibre content.
For this replacementcombination,theincreaseis27.40%
for 0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 26.47% for 1.0%GI-FRCof
TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI-
FRC of M30 grade.
3. The Shear Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has shown
maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e., when
Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and 10%
Silica Fume with 0.5% and 1.0% GIFibrecontent.Forthis
replacement combination, the increase is 17.13% for
0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 15.19% for 1.0% GI-FRC of
TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI-
FRC of M30 grade.
4. The Strength of Ternary Blended Cement Fibre
Reinforced Concrete hasincreasedincaseof TBM2(20%
Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume). Therefore, it is
recommended that partial replacement of Cement by Fly
Ash and Silica Fume be used in FRC for better Strength.
The durability is also expected to be high due to reduced
voids and micro voids.
5. The Strength of FRCs with TBM 1 (15% Fly Ash and 15%
Red Mud) has shown reduction. This is probably due to
reduced workability at higher Red Mud content.
Scope for Future Study
The Following work can be taken up for better
understanding of the performance of Ternary BlendedFibre
Reinforced Concrete,
1. Ordinary Portland Cement can be further replace by
mineral admixtures such as, Metakaolin, Quartz Powder,
Rice Husk Ash, Bagasse Ash, Wood Ash.
2. Manufactured Sand be partially or fully replaced with
Steel Slag or River Sand.
3. Ternary Blended FRC be partially replacedwithRecycled
Aggregates.
4. Ternary Blended FRC with different types of Fibres like,
Steel Fibres, Glass Fibres, Polypropylene Fibres, Carbon
Fibres can be added instead of GI Fibres.
5. The Effects of Ternary Blended FRC on Flexure Strength
and Impact Strength.
6. Durability studies on Ternary Blended FRC.

International Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN: 2395-0056 Volume: 04 Issue: 09 | Sep -2017 www.irjet.net p-ISSN: 2395-0072 © 2017, IRJET | Impact Factor value: 5.181 | ISO 9001:2008 Certified Journal | Page 753 AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THE PROPERTIES OF TERNARY BLENDED FIBRE REINFORCED CONCRETE Sahana. N. S. 1 , Dr. D. S. Prakash 2 1 PG Student, Department of Studies in Civil Engineering, University B. D. T. College of Engineering, Davangere, Karnataka. 2 Principal, Department of Studies in Civil Engineering, University B. D. T. College of Engineering, Davangere, Karnataka. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract: Extensive research work is in progress throughout the world in concrete technology to find alternative materials which can be partially or fully replace of Ordinary Portland Cement and which can also meet the required strength and durability, mainly aims at reducing cost and environmental effects due to cement manufacturing processes.. Inthepresent study, Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC)of43grade ispartially replaced by up to 30% of mineral admixtures such as, Fly Ash (FA), Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), Silica Fume (SF) and Red mud (RM) by weight of cement used in making Galvanized Iron (GI) Fibre Reinforced Concrete. GI Fibre Reinforced Concrete with 0.5% and 1.0% GI-Fibre content by volume fraction are considered for studyM30 grade of concrete with a constant Water-Cement ratio of 0.4 has been used in the work. The workability characteristics are studied through slump test. The strength characteristics of Ternary Blended GI Fibre Reinforced Concrete such as, compressive strength, split tensile strengthandshearstrength test are compared with Reference Mixes of 0.5% GI-FRC and 1.0% GI-FRC. In this work, a total of 135 specimen have been cast and tested at 28 days for Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength and Shear Strength. The Ternary Blended FRC with 20% Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume replacement of cement has yielded maximum increase in Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength and Shear Strength compared with Reference Mixes of 0.5% GI- FRC and 1.0% GI-FRC. Key Words: Ternary Blended Concrete, Fly Ash (FA), Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), Silica Fume (SF), Red mud (RM), Galvanized Iron Fibres (GI Fibres). 1. Introduction Concrete is the most abundantly consumed material which is commonly utilized for the constructionpurposesall over the world. Many researches are going-on in the area of Concrete Technology to find alternative materialswhichcan be partially or fully replace of Ordinary Portland Cement. Amongst some alternative materials tried for partial replacement of cement are mineral admixtures like Fly Ash, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag, Silica Fume, Metakaolin, Red mud, Rice Husk Ash etc. Moreover, most of the mineral admixtures are the by-productmaterialsandthe use of these materials leads to reduction in waste and savings in energy consumption required to produce cement and blended mix concretes. Most recently the production of multi-blended concretes by incorporating industrial by- products/pozzolanic materials is becoming an activearea of research due to their improved properties such as workability, long-term strength and durability. This leadsto the development of Ternary Blended Concrete. 2. Objective of Experimental Work The main objective of this experimental investigation is to study the Properties of Ternary Blended Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC) by partially replacing OPC with up to 30%of Fly Ash, GGBFS, Silica Fume and Red mud in different combinations of three. A design concrete mix of M30 grade are proposed with a constant Water-Cement ratioof0.4. The proposed FRC is to have GalvanizedIronFibres(GIFibres)at 0.5% and 1.0% by volume fraction. Following combinations of cement replacement are proposed in this work to study theirinfluenceofthestrength of Ternary Blended GI-FRC. Ternary Blended Mixes 1 (TBM 1) 1. Cement + Fly Ash + GGBFS 2.

The Shear strength of Ternary blended FRC has shown maximum decrease in strength for TBM 1 i.e., when Cement is partially replaced by 15% Fly Ash and 15% Red Mud with 0.5% and 1.0% GI Fibre content. At this replacement combination, the reduction is 34.02% for 0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 1 and 30.17% for 1.0% GI-FRC of TBM 1. Conclusions The following conclusions are drawn fromtheanalysisof results for various strength tests, 1. The Compressive Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has shown maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e., when Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume for 0.5% and 1.0% GI Fibre content. For this replacement combination, the increase is 4% for 0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 3.13% for 1.0% GI-FRC of TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI- FRC of M30 grade. 2. The Split Tensile Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has shown maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e., when Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume with 0.5% and 1.0% GI Fibre content. For this replacementcombination,theincreaseis27.40% for 0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 26.47% for 1.0%GI-FRCof TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI- FRC of M30 grade. 3. The Shear Strength of Ternary Blended FRC has shown maximum increase in Strength for TBM 2 i.e., when Cement is partially replaced by 20% Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume with 0.5% and 1.0% GIFibrecontent.Forthis replacement combination, the increase is 17.13% for 0.5% GI-FRC of TBM 2 and 15.19% for 1.0% GI-FRC of TBM 2 are compared with Reference 0.5% and 1.0% GI- FRC of M30 grade. 4. The Strength of Ternary Blended Cement Fibre Reinforced Concrete hasincreasedincaseof TBM2(20% Fly Ash and 10% Silica Fume). Therefore, it is recommended that partial replacement of Cement by Fly Ash and Silica Fume be used in FRC for better Strength. The durability is also expected to be high due to reduced voids and micro voids. 5. The Strength of FRCs with TBM 1 (15% Fly Ash and 15% Red Mud) has shown reduction. This is probably due to reduced workability at higher Red Mud content. Scope for Future Study The Following work can be taken up for better understanding of the performance of Ternary BlendedFibre Reinforced Concrete, 1. Ordinary Portland Cement can be further replace by mineral admixtures such as, Metakaolin, Quartz Powder, Rice Husk Ash, Bagasse Ash, Wood Ash. 2. Manufactured Sand be partially or fully replaced with Steel Slag or River Sand. 3. Ternary Blended FRC be partially replacedwithRecycled Aggregates. 4. Ternary Blended FRC with different types of Fibres like, Steel Fibres, Glass Fibres, Polypropylene Fibres, Carbon Fibres can be added instead of GI Fibres. 5. The Effects of Ternary Blended FRC on Flexure Strength and Impact Strength. 6. Durability studies on Ternary Blended FRC. References 1. G. Dhinakaran, K. Revanth Kumar, S. Vijayarakhavan, M.
