An Investigation of Mechanical Properties of Fly Ash Based Geopolymer and Glass Fibers Concrete

This paper presents an innovative approach towards the development of a green concrete. The geopolymer is environmentally friendly construction/repairing material. In addition, glass fibers are helpful to influence strength properties and reduce hair line cracks bleeding in study based on use fly ash as partial replacement cement and, subsequently, its effect compressive split tensile manufactured after process geopolymerization between class F alkali activator fluid (sodium silicate sodium hydroxide). concretes (GPC), inorganic polymer called aluminosilicate will act binder, same conventional concrete has Portland (OPC)-generated C-S-H gel. added ratios 3%, 6%, 10% by weight cement. To check concrete, cubes size 150 × mm cylinders 300 with or without were casted cured for 7, 14, 21, 28 days. all determined compression testing machine. findings research revealed that having used showed lesser compared Concrete reduced workability more segregation normal However, made either economical
