1、Designation: A820/A820M 11A820/A820M 15Standard Specification forSteel Fibers for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A820/A820M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of
2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers minimum requirements for steel fibers intended for use in fiber-reinforced concrete. Five
3、types ofsteel fibers for this purpose are defined as pieces of smooth or deformed cold-drawn wire; smooth or deformed cut sheet;melt-extracted fibers; mill-cut or modified cold-drawn wire steel fibers that are sufficiently small to be dispersed at random in aconcrete mixture.1.2 This specification p
4、rovides for measurement of dimensions, tolerances from specified dimensions, and required minimumphysical properties, and prescribes testing procedures to establish conformance to these requirements.1.3 In the case of conflict between a requirement of a product specification and a requirement of thi
5、s specification, the productspecification shall prevail. In the case of a conflict between a requirement of the product specification or a requirement of thisspecification and a more stringent requirement of the purchase order, the purchase order shall prevail. The purchase orderrequirements shall n
6、ot take precedence if they, in any way, violate the requirements of the product specification or thisspecification; for example, by the waiving of a test requirement or by making a test requirement less stringent.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separat
7、ely as standard. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.2. Referenced Documents2.1 The following documents, of the issue in eff

31、 of this specification provide a general indication of fiber ductility, as may be important in resisting breakage duringhandling and mixing operations. Ductility measures of fiber-reinforced concrete are outside the scope of this specification; see ACI 544.1R.7.2.2 Bend tests shall be conducted on t
32、en randomly selected specimens of finished fibers. It shall be permissible to performbend tests manually. At least one test consisting of ten specimens shall be made for each 5 tons 4 500 kg of material. At least90 % of the specimens must pass the test.8. Dimensions and Permissible Variations8.1 Dim
33、ensions:8.1.1 Straight cold-drawn wire (Type I) fibers are specified by diameter (d) or equivalent (de) and length (l), that establish aspecified aspect ratio, (), or (e), as (l / d) or (l / de).8.1.2 Deformed cold-drawn wire (Type I) fibers are specified by the diameter (d) or equivalent diameter (
34、de) and nominal lengthafter bending (ln). Nominal aspect ratio (n) is established as (ln / d) or (ln / de).8.1.3 Cut sheet (Type II) fibers are specified by thickness (t), width (w), and length (l). Aspect ratio () can be computed as:5l/dewhere:A = tw, andde = equivalent diameter 5=4A/pi .8.1.4 Defo
35、rmed cut sheet (Type II) fibers are specified by thickness (t), width (w), and nominal length after deformation (ln).Nominal aspect ratio (n) can be computed as follows.5ln/dewhere:A = tw, andde = equivalent diameter 5=4A/pi .8.1.5 Melt-extracted (Type III) and mill-cut (Type IV) fibers are specifie
36、d by equivalent diameter, (de), and length (l), or nominallength (ln). Equivalent diameter is computed from measured average nominal length and the weight mass of a known quantityof fibers, based upon 0.284 lb/in.3 7 865 kgm3 measured to the nearest 2 10-6 lb 0.1 mg. Nominal aspect ratio, (n), canbe
37、 computed as follows:n5l/de, or5ln/de8.1.6 Modified cold-drawn wire fibers (Type V) are specified by a range of equivalent diameters, (de-r), and length (l), ornominal length (ln). Equivalent diameter is computed as in 8.1.5. A range of nominal aspect ratios, (n-r) can be computed asfollows:n2r5l/de
38、2r, or5ln/de2rNOTE 3Specifying a specific diameter or equivalent diameter for Type V fibers is not applicable as the diameters of many Type V fibers vary morethan 610 % in each lot. Therefore a user should provide the limits on diameter or equivalent diameter allowable.8.2 Measurement of Dimensions:
39、8.2.1 Measurement of dimensions shall be performed on not less than 10 randomly selected specimens for each test to establishthe average for conformance to specified tolerances.At least 90 % of the specimens in each test shall meet the specified tolerancesfor length, diameter or equivalent diameter,

Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 Surface Condition:A820/A820M 1539.1.1 Seams and surface irregularities shall not
