In the present work the mechanical behavior of a self-consolidating concrete reinforced with steel fibers was investigated. Twisted and hooked end steel fibers were used in lengths of 25, 30 and 60 mm and diameters of 0.5, 0.62 e 0.75 mm. For each of these fibers and for each volumetric fractions investigated (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 percent), the four-point bending tests on prismatic specimens and direct tensile in dog bone shape specimens were performed. In the flexural tests, the toughness and residual strengths were computed. Alternatively, the energy absorption capacity in the round panel tests was determined following the ASTM C1550. During the test the crack opening was measured through displacement transducers. The steel fiber reinforced concrete subject to direct tensile loading was more ductile than the self-consolidating concrete matrix, showing a high influence of the volume and embedded length of the fibers in the residual loads in the post-cracking zone. In the bending tests, a large increase in the toughness and strains corresponding to the residual loads were observed. Finally, the influence of the fiber reinforced concretes on the behavior of reinforced beams subject to bending was investigated. The evolution of the crack openings was monitored with a digital image correlation system and correlated to the applied load and displacements. It was observed in these tests that the fibrous reinforcement considerably increased the load capacity and flexural stiffness, delaying the crack growth.
