<title>ABSTRACT</title>
<p>Conventional cement composite is generally produced with ordinary Portland cement
(OPC) as a binder. However, during manufacturing the cement composite, large
amount of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) are emitted. Therefore, fly ash is proposed to be
replaced to OPC in order to reduce CO<sub>2</sub> emission of cement composites. For
reinforcing fibers, micro steel fibers were used. For investigating mechanical properties
of steel fiber-reinforced cement composites (SFRCCs), direct tension tests were
conducted. The test results showed that fly ash improves tensile strength and ductility
of SFRCCs. However, tensile strength of the SFRCC decreased as replacement ratio of
recycled fine aggregate increased. The use of recycled materials in FRCC helps to save
natural resources and promote sustainability in civil engineering materials.</p>
