To address the challenge of structural deterioration caused by frequent cracking in the lining structures of deep-buried hydraulic tunnels in high-altitude areas, the enhancement of concrete's mechanical properties is investigated through the addition of fibers and determines the optimal fiber content for practical engineering application. Firstly, tests on the tensile, compressive, and flexural mechanical properties of basalt fiber-reinforced concrete (BFRC) with varying fiber contents were conducted, the variation patterns of concrete's tensile, compressive, and flexural mechanical properties under different volumetric fiber contents were obtained. Subsequently, a mesoscopic numerical model of fiber-reinforced concrete that truly reflects the microstructural factors such as aggregate shape, gradation, aspect ratio, fiber distribution, and initial defects was established. By comparing the mesoscopic numerical model with indoor axial tension test results, the mechanism of fiber reinforcement on the tensile strength of concrete was revealed. Finally, the optimal fiber content was analyzed. The results indicate that: Compared to the plain concrete, a fiber volume content of 0.2% is optimal, with the axial tensile strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength of BFRC increased by 12.81%, 14.79%, and 21.26%, respectively. The error between the tensile strength of the fiber concrete predicted by the established mesoscopic numerical model and the indoor test results for plain (fiber) concrete is 4.24% (5.26%), and the model can accurately reflect the failure development process and macroscopic mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced concrete specimens. The findings of this study can provide a reference for the design and application of basalt fiber-reinforced concrete structures.
