The paper discusses the effect of aging on steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) after 10 years. The aim is to observe the change in mechanical properties, especially of the residual post-cracking tensile strength, due to long-term aging. For this purpose, a comparison between the results of four-point bending tests (4PB) at the age of 1 year and 10 years was carried out and it indicates that aging affects the serviceability post-cracking residual strength, increasing fibre interfacial bond strength. Material classification is performed according to fib Model Code 2010 for 1-year old and 10-year old specimens. The objective is to estimate possible changes in the material class through the years. Three- and four-point bending test results on 10-year old specimens are described, together with a comparison between those tests. Both tests showed very similar results; slightly higher values were obtained with the three-point bending (3PB) test. The tensile constitutive law is obtained according to fib Model Code 2010 and is compared with results of direct tensile tests on cylindrical specimens and Double Edge Wedge Splitting tests on prismatic specimens. A plane section (PS) approach adopting the tensile constitutive law is applied to predict the bending behaviour in terms of nominal stress against crack mouth opening displacement and it is compared with the bending test results.
