The present study appraises the recitals of carboxylic acid- based admixture to increase concrete water tightness and self-sealing capacity of the cement and geopolymer concrete. Outcomes of the previous studies in particular, adding 1% by cement mass of the carboxylic polymer reasons for reduction in the water dispersion under pressure of 7-day wet cured concrete by 50% associated to that of the conforming reference concrete. At 7 days, M4 mix compressive strength is about 43.5% less than M3 mix. The compressive strength of M4 increases and is about 37.6% less than M3 mix at 28 days of curing. At 7 days, M4 mix split tensile strength is about 17.5% less than M3 mix (cement concrete with 0.45 w/c ratio). The split tensile strength of M4 declines and is about 42.3% less than M3 mix at 28 days of curing. The strength of the geopolymer concrete tends to increase as the time period increases due to the presence of fly ash in it. So it is expected that geopolymer concrete will give more strength than cement concrete in long term with the presence of carboxylic acid

Geopolymer concrete (GPC) has significant potential as a more sustainable alternative for ordinary Portland cement concrete. GPC had been introduced to reduce carbon footprints and thereby safeguarding environment. This emerging eco friendly construction product finds majority of its application in precast and prefabricated structures due to the special curing conditions required. Sustained research efforts are being taken to make the product suitable for in situ applications. The developed technology will certainly address the issues of huge energy consumption as well reduce water use which is becoming scarce nowadays. Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) a by-product of iron industries in combination with fly ash has proved to give enhanced strength, durability as well reduced setting time. This study investigates the effect of GGBS as partial replacement of fly ash in the manufacture of GPC. Cube and cylindrical specimens were cast and subjected to ambient curing as well to alternate wetting-drying cycles. The 28 day compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and density of GPC specimens were found. The study revealed increase in compressive strength, split tensile strength, density as well flexural strength up to 40 percent replacement of fly ash by GGBS.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between molarity and workability in Self-Compacting Geopolymer Concrete (SCGC), as well as mechanical properties. Compressive strength and split tensile strength tests are used to characterize the mechanical characteristics in this research. Additionally, the study investigates the optimal molarity for self-compacting geopolymer concrete. Fly ash was used in lieu of cement in this research. On new concrete self-compacting geopolymer, workability is determined using the EFNARC standard, which includes the Slump Flow, V-Funnel, and L-Box tests. ASTM 39/C 39M-99 standard is used to determine the compressive strength of self-compacting concrete geopolymer. On new concrete, workability is determined using the EFNARC standard, which comprises the Slump Flow Test, a V-funnel, and an L-Box. The compressive strength of concrete samples is determined according to the ASTM 39/C 39M – 99 standard. The SNI 03-2491-2002 standard is used to determine the split tensile strength of concrete. At the ages of 7, 14, and 28 days, tests were conducted. The findings indicated that new concrete at 11M-13M satisfied the criteria for SCGC workability. The compressive and split tensile strengths of SCGC grow as the concrete ages. In self-compacting geopolymer concrete, the optimal molarity is 13 M.

Fly ash is a kind of trash that may degrade the quality of the air. As a result, it is critical that it be used as an ecologically beneficial material. Although cement is the most often used construction material, its manufacturing generates carbon dioxide, which may degrade air quality. The aim of this research was to evaluate the compressive strength and split tensile strength of self-compacting geopolymer concrete (SCGC) cured in seawater, as well as to compare SCGC with and without saltwater. In this research, a cylindrical specimen with a diameter of 10 cm and a height of 20 cm was utilized as the specimen. Fly ash is used in proportion to fine and coarse aggregates at a ratio of 1: 0.65: 1.5. Using a 0.4 activator to binder ratio. The molarity ranges utilized were 11 M, 12 M, 13 M, 14 M, and 15 M. Compressive strength and split tensile strength tests were conducted on 28-day-old concrete. The findings indicated that when the molarity of SCGC treated with seawater increased from 11 to 15 M, the compressive and split tensile strengths increased. Compressive strength values were greatest in SCGC treated at room temperature when an activator of 13 M was used, and compressive strength values dropped in SCGC treated at room temperature when an activator greater than 13 M was used

Purpose Demand for Geopolymer concrete (GPC) has increased recently because of its many benefits, including being environmentally sustainable, extremely tolerant to high temperature and chemical attacks in more dangerous environments. Like standard concrete, GPC also has low tensile strength and deformation capacity. This paper aims to analyse the utilization of incinerated bio-medical waste ash (IBWA) combined with ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in reinforced GPC beams and columns. Medical waste was produced in the health-care industry, specifically in hospitals and diagnostic laboratories. GGBS is a form of industrial waste generated by steel factories. The best option to address global warming is to reduce the consumption of Portland cement production and promote other types of cement that were not a pollutant to the environment. Therefore, the replacement in ordinary Portland cement construction with GPC is a promising way of reducing carbon dioxide emissions. GPC was produced due to an alkali-activated polymeric reaction between alumina-silicate source materials and unreacted aggregates and other materials. Industrial pollutants such as fly ash and slag were used as raw materials. Design/methodology/approach Laboratory experiments were performed on three different proportions (reinforced cement concrete [RCC], 100% GGBS as an aluminosilicate source material in reinforced geopolymer concrete [GRGPC] and 30% replacement of IBWA as an aluminosilicate source material for GGBS in reinforced geopolymer concrete [IGRGPC]). The cubes and cylinders for these proportions were tested to find their compressive strength and split tensile strength. In addition, beams (deflection factor, ductility factor, flexural strength, degradation of stiffness and toughness index) and columns (load-carrying ability, stress-strain behaviour and load-deflection behaviours) of reinforced geopolymer concrete (RGPC) were studied. Findings As shown by the results, compared to Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) and 100% GGBS based Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete (GRGPC), 30% IBWA and 70% GGBS based Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete (IGRGPC) (30% IBWA–70% GGBS reinforced geo-polymer concrete) cubes, cylinders, beams and columns exhibit high compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, load-carrying ability, ultimate strength, stiffness, ductility and deformation capacity. Originality/value All the results were based on the experiments done in this research. All the result values obtained in this research are higher than the theoretical values.

The Cost

The properties of concrete containing coarse recycled aggregates were investigated. Laboratory trials were conducted to investigate the possibility of using recycled aggregates from the demolition wastes available locally as the replacement of natural coarse aggregates in concrete. A series of tests were carried out to determine the density, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete with and without recycled aggregates. The water cement ratio was kept constant for all the mixes. The coarse aggregate in concrete was replaced with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% recycled coarse aggregates. The test results indicated that the replacement of natural coarse aggregates by recycled aggregates up to 40% had little effect on the compressive strength, but higher levels of replacement reduced the compressive strength. A replacement level of 100% causes a reduction of 28% in compressive strength, 36% in split tensile strength and 50% in flexural strength. For strength characteristics, the results showed a gradual decrease in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity as the percentage of recycled aggregate used in the specimens increased. 100% replacement of natural coarse aggregate by recycled aggregate resulted in 43% savings in the cost of coarse aggregates and 9% savings in the cost of concrete.

Waterway sand and pit sand are the most normally utilized fine aggregates for concrete creation in many parts of the world. Huge scale extraction of these materials presents genuine ecological risk in numerous parts of the nation. Aside from the ecological danger, there still exists the issue of intense lack in many regions. In this way, substitute material in place of river sand for concrete production should be considered. The paper means to examine the compressive and split tensile qualities of concrete produced using quarry residue, sand, and a blend of sand and quarry dust. The experimentation is absolutely research facility based. A total of 60 concrete cubes of size 150 mm x 150 mm x 150 mm, and 60 cylinders 150 mm in diameter and 300 mm deep, conforming to M50 grade were casted. All the samples were cured and tested with a steady water/concrete proportion of 0.31. Out of the 60 blocks cast, 20 each were made out of natural river sand, quarry dust and an equivalent blend of sand and quarry dust. It was discovered that the compressive strength and split tensile strength of concrete produced using the blend of quarry residue and sand was higher than the compressive qualities of concrete produced using 100% sand and 100% quarry dust.

Abstract The rigid pavement is a pavement construction in which a concrete slab is used as the top layer, which is located above the foundation or directly above the subgrade, without or with an asphalt surface layer. One type of rigid pavement used in Indonesia is rigid pavement without using reinforcement which is usually used in areas with low traffic or residential areas. Pavement without using reinforcement is the small split tensile strength so that the part of the plate will experience cracks due to stresses that cannot be avoided from traffic loads. Therefore, it is necessary to have reinforcement on the concrete slab so that the cracks do not extend. In this research, the use of copper fiber waste from electronic cables as a substitute solution for reinforcement to be used as a mixture in concrete. The experiments were carried out using fiber with variations of 0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% of the total weight of concrete mixture material and then tested at 28 days of concrete age. This research showed the variation of fiber weight until 1,5% increase the split tensile strength up to 32,46% and the compressive strength up to 9,16%.

This paper aims to investigate the influence of alkaline activators solution i.e, Na2SiO3 / NaOH on compressive strength of geopolymer concrete mixed with Ground Granulated Blast furnace slag (GGBS) for constant molarity 8 M. The ratio of alkali to binder ratio is taken as 0.5 and the ratio of Na2SiO3 / NaOH is 2.5. The geopolymer mix is based on pervious sutdies. As per Indian standard size moulds for the cube, cylinder and prism are cast, cured and tested.The specimens were tested for fresh concrete properties such as slump cone test and hardened properties such as compressive strength for cubes, split tensile strength for cylinders and flexural strength for prism different days of curing under ambient temperature. Also, a microstructural study is done by using Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) for the tested sample. It is found from the test results that, with the aid of alumino-silicate solution, early strength is achieved by geopolymer concrete within 7 days under ambient condition due to the presence of ground granulated slag.
