The use of abundantly available wastes such as Fly ash and ceramic powder in construction industry in the form of geopolymer concrete turns out to be the search of a very promising building material for a sustainable future[15].This study has been undertaken to investigate the strength and durability properties of geopolymer concrete by adding ceramic powder in different percentage as source material in addition with flyash[16]. All investigations are mainly focused towards geopolymer concrete mainly with flyash as source material. In this study, ceramic waste powder is added since it is also one of the major waste material as flyash. Nowadays, almost all the construction are carried out with ceramic products which results with more ceramic waste powder. Thus this work focused to utilize this waste powder into geopolymer concrete. Characteristic strength and primary durability properties are carried out by adding ceramic powder with 50%,40% and30% with fly ash. Thus this paper focuses on varying the proportions of fly ash and ceramic waste powder (50:50, 60:40, 70:30) in geopolymer concrete incorporating with polypropylene fibres in percentage of 0.5%,0.75% and 1% in volume of concrete to evaluate its strength and durability characteristics. The alkaline activator solution used is a mixture of 10 molar Sodium hydroxide and Sodium silicate in the ratio 1:3. Ambient curing condition is applied for the specimens. M-Sand is used instead of fine aggregate, since many literature reveals addition of M-Sand gains more strength in geopolymer Concrete.

Abstract Efforts over the past few years for improving the performance of concrete suggest that cement replacement with mineral admixtures can enhance the strength and durability of concrete. Feasibility of producing good quality concrete by using alccofine and fly ash replacements is investigated and also the potential benefits from their incorporation were looked into. In this study, an attempt has been made to assess the performance of concrete in severe marine conditions exposed upto a period of 150 days. This work investigates the influence of alccofine and fly ash as partial replacement of cement in various percentages (Alccofine - 5% replacement to cement content) and (fly ash - 0%, 15%, 30%, 50% & 60% to total cementitious content) on mechanical and durability properties (Permit ion permeability test and corrosion current density) of concrete. Usage of alccofine and high quantity of fly ash as additional cementitious materials in concrete has resulted in higher workability of concrete. Inclusion of alccofine shows an early strength gaining property whereas fly ash results in gaining strength at later stage. Concrete mixes containing 5% alccofine with 15% fly ash replacement reported greater compressive strength than the other concrete mixes cured in both curing conditions. Durability test conducted at 56 and 150 days indicated that concrete containing higher percentages of fly ash resulted in lower permeability as well lesser corrosion density.

Aims: This paper introduces a sustainable way of using Recycled Glass Powder (RGP) as a cement replacement in concrete. Background: In Australia, almost one million tons of glass waste is collected annually for recycling purpose. However, the inconsistency in chemical composition and the presence of impurities make glass recycling process difficult. Besides, the lack of local recycling plants coupled with high transportation costs makes the recycling process expensive. Objective: For the successful use of recycled glass in concrete for industrial applications, it is therefore, important to characterize the physical and chemical properties of recycled glass collected by the local councils. Furthermore, the effects of replacement levels of cement with recycled glass on the strength and durability properties of concrete need to be assessed as well. Methods: Mechanical strength and durability properties of concrete with 10%, 20% and 30% of RGP as a partial cement replacement were tested and compared with typical concrete and fly ash blend concrete. The relative strength test of mortar was conducted to assess the reactivity of glass powder with the cement. Results: RGP concrete showed an improvement in strength over time like fly ash. Using RGP significantly improved the resistance against chloride penetration with increasing glass powder content. Furthermore, RGP also met the relative strength requirement as per Australian Standard requirement to be considered as a supplementary cementitious material. Conclusion: This research showed that the use of RGP as cement replacement is feasible for replacement level up to 10%. The outcome of this research aims to contribute towards sustainable development by reducing the consumption of cement, as well as reduction of glass waste going into landfill.
