“Experimental Study on Mechanical Strength and Durability of Fiber-Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete with Mineral Admixtures”

Abstract

 All construction projects use concrete as a common building material. Building large, high-end, and sophisticatedstructuresrequires large amounts of cement. The demand for structural concrete depends on workability, strength, durability, inoperation,portability, ease of working etc. Concrete technology has made many advances over the years. Significant advancesinconcretetechnology include fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC), high-strength concrete, high-performance concrete, large-volume flyashconcrete,self- hardening concrete, self-compacting concrete, geopolymer concrete, etc., with consistent use of chemical and mineral admixturesThe thesis begins with a blended design of GPC grade M-Forty. The mixture was modified using various amounts of groundgranulatedblast furnace slag (GGBS as replacements for fly ash. Like ordinary concrete, GPC has a denser structure, making compression more robust. The current study tested four typesoffibers,metallic (steel fibers) and non-metallic (glass, polypropylene, basalt), in GPC mixes. Steel fibers are used at an optimumratioofonewitha maximum aspect ratio of forty. Non-metallic fibers such as glass, polypropylene, and basalt have been found to contributelittletoincreased strengthKeywords: Fiber-reinforced concrete, high-strength concrete, high-performance concrete, large-volume fly ash concrete, self- hardeningconcrete
