This invention belongs to the technical fields of infrastructure construction, urban renewal, seismic reinforcement, and infrastructure improvement in cold regions, and discloses a low-
fiber-content, high-
toughness self-
prestressed concrete. It achieves the dual goals of high
toughness and crack-free service life in low-
fiber-content concrete by controlling the
volume deformation of a highly efficient expansion component. This invention controls the
mass fraction (25 parts / 2000 parts - 45 parts / 2000 parts) and particle size (1 μm - 80 μm) of the highly efficient expansion component, and cures it with water for at least 3 days. The volume of the expanded highly efficient expansion component accounts for 2.5% - 4.5% of the total volume; thus, an equivalent
flexural toughness of not less than 160 kJ / m is achieved with a low
fiber volume content. 3 It achieves the goal of low cost and high
toughness with a
flexural strength of not less than 12 MPa. It has broad prospects in infrastructure construction, urban renewal, hydraulic structures, seismic reinforcement, and especially in upgrading infrastructure in cold regions.
