STUDIES ON ACID ATTACK RESISTANCE OF LOW CALCIUM FLYASH AND SLAG BASED GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE

A Study on Strength Properties of Geopolymer Concrete with Addition of G.G.B.S

–Flyash based geopolymer concrete is introduced in 1979 by Davidovits to reduce the use of OPC in concrete. Geopolymer is an inorganic alumino-hydroxide polymer synthesized form predominantly silicon and aluminum materials of geological origin and by product materials such as flyash (with low calcium). In this paper an attempt is made to study strength properties of geopolymer concrete using lo...

Experimental Investigation on Impact Resistance of Flyash Concrete and Flyash Fiber Reinforced Concrete

The present Experimental investigation is to study the Impact Resistance of the Fly ash concrete reinforced with steel fibers. The concrete composite comprises of steel fibers in different percentages and partial replacement of cement in different proportions. Steel fibers varied from 0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% by weight of cement and replacement of fly ash varied from 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% by w...

Experimental Evaluation of Beneficial Use of Lake Michigan Dredged Materials in Flyash Based Geopolymer Concrete

Compressive Strength and Workability Characteristics of Low-Calcium Fly ash-based Self-Compacting Geopolymer Concrete

Due to growing environmental concerns of the cement industry, alternative cement technologies have become an area of increasing interest. It is now believed that new binders are indispensable for enhanced environmental and durability performance. Self-compacting Geopolymer concrete is an innovative method and improved way of concreting operation that does not require vibration for placing it an...
