Effect of Sugarcane Bagasse Fiber on Geopolymer Concrete when it is Subjected to Alternative Drying and Wetting

Various types of fibers like glass, steel, coconut fiber, sugarcane bagasse etc are used to increase the mechanical properties concrete. SCBF is final residue sugar industries which in this study. The objective paper study effect geopolymer concrete (GPC) and conventional (CC) equivalent grade M40 when it subjected alternative drying wetting. specimens treated with water by wetting process. This test consists periodic cycles, each cycle one day day. tested for compressive strengths after 7, 14 28 cycles. strength CCF GPCF higher than CC GPC respectively optimum obtained at 0.5% fiber dosage. % loss weights calculated compared GPC. From results obtained, weight less
