The durability of building composites with polymer matrix, such as polymer concretes, is considered high or excellent. However, very few studies are available that show the properties of such composites tested long after the specimens’ preparation, especially composites with fillers other than traditional rock aggregates. The paper presents the long-term compressive strength of polymer concrete containing common and alternative fine fillers, including quartz powder (ground sand) and by-products of the combustion of Polish fossil fuels (coal and lignite), tested nine or 9.5 years after preparation. The results were compiled with the data for respective specimens tested after 14 days, as well as 1.5 and 7 years. Data analysis confirmed the excellent durability of concrete-like composites with various fillers in terms of compressive strength. Density measurements of selected composites showed that the increase in strength was accompanied by an increase in volumetric density. This showed that the opinion that the development of the strength of composites with polymer matrices taking place within a few to several days was not always justified. In the case of a group of tested concrete-like composites with vinyl-ester matrices saturated with fly ashes of various origins, there was a further significant increase in strength over time.

Geopolymer is a greener alternative cement produced from the reaction of pozzolans and strong alkali solutions. Generally, the cement industry is one of largest producers of CO2that caused global warming. For geopolymer mortar usage, Portland cement is not utilized at all. In this research, geopolymer mortars were prepared by mixing metakaolin, various wastes (fly ash, bagasse ash and rice husk ash) varied as 80:20, 50:50 and 20:80, 15M NaOH, Na2SiO3and sand. The influence of various parameters such as metakaolin to ashes ratios and pozzolans to alkali ratios on engineering properties of metakaolin blended wastes geopolymer mortar were studied. Compressive strength tests were carried out on 25 x 25 x 25 mm3cube geopolymer mortar specimens at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 91 air curing days. Physical and chemical properties were also investigated at the same times. The test results revealed that the highest compressive strength was 20% metakaolin - 80% fly ash geopolymer mortar. When the curing times increases, the compressive strength of geopolymer mortar also increases. The mixing of metakaolin and bagasse ash/rice husk ash presented lower compressive strength but higher water absorption and porosity. For FTIR results, Si-O, Al-O and Si-O-Na+were found. Moreover, the geopolymer mortar could easily plastered on the wall.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

Abstract In construction industry, demolished construction waste is recently used as reprocessed aggregate to produce environmentally friendly concrete which is a good substitute to normal crush due to increased demand of ecological growth and conservation benefits. Though, the properties of recycled aggregate concrete are smallest as compared to concrete produced from natural aggregate and these properties can be enhanced by adding some materials having cementitious properties. Rice husk ash (RHA) is used as partial replacement of cement in recycled aggregate concrete to improve the properties as well as to conserve the natural resources. The elementary purpose of this investigation is to determine the compressive strength of concrete by the replacement of cement with different percentages of rice husk ash such as 0%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5%, 15%, and 17.5% respectively with different curing conditions. For the experimental program approximate 198 cylinders (18 for rapid curing, 90 for normal water curing and 90 for acid curing) are casted with the mix proportion of 1:2:4 and water to cement ratio of 0.50 whereas curing is done at the ages of 3,7,14,21 and 28 days. Various experiments are performed on fresh and hardened concrete to determine the effects of rice husk ash on recycled aggregate concrete with different curing conditions. Linear regression analysis is carried out to determine the compressive strength of concrete. It is pragmatic from the slump test results that the workability of recycled aggregate concrete is decreased by increasing the quantity of rice husk ash. This reduction in slump is due to high water absorption of recycled aggregates and rice husk ash. Further, the compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete with normal and acid curing is decreased by increasing the percentages of rice husk ash. It is also observed that at 28- days of normal water curing for mix M1,M2,M3,M4,M5 and M6 the compressive strength is increased by 0.96%, 2.74% 1.45%,4.50%,4.23% and 4.22% respectively as compared to the compressive strength values at 28 days of acid water curing. Therefore, it is concluded that recycled aggregate concrete with 10 to 12% of rice husk ash is suitable for properties of concrete. The acid water curing has negative impacts on hardened properties of concrete as it reduced the compressive strength of concrete as compared to normal water curing.

ABSTRACTEarth stabilization, using two by-products available in Burkina Faso: Calcium Carbide Residue (CCR) and Rice Husk Ash (RHA), improved the performance of compressed earth blocks (CEBs). The effect of adding CCR or CCR: RHA (in various ratios) to the clayey earth was investigated. CEBs were molded by manually compressing moisturized mixtures of earthen materials and 0-15 % CCR or CCR: RHA (various ratios) with respect to the weight of earthen material. The results showed that, with 15 % CCR: RHA in 7: 3 ratio, the compressive strength of CEBs (6.6 MPa) is three times that of the CEBs containing 15 % CCR alone (2.2 MPa). This improvement was related to the pozzolanic reaction between CCR, clay and RHA. These CEBs comply with the requirement for wall construction of two-storey housing.

Abstract Mortar is widely used in the construction industry for different purposes. Its compressive strength is the main parameter which is brought under focus. Compressive strength of mortars depends upon many factors such as water-cement ratio, fine aggregates size, and different curing conditions. This experimental study was undertaken to investigate the effect of GGBFS on compressive strength of mortars under different curing regimes using GGBFS as a partial replacement of cement. A total of 60 cubes of standard size of 2 x 2 x 2 inches were casted in laboratory, out of which 12 cubes each were prepared with 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% GGBFS replacement for cement. Cubes were cured for 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. Bases on obtained results it is observed that the maximum compressive strength was achieved by sample with 5% GGBFS, although 10% GGBFS samples achieved higher compressive strength than the control sample with 0% GGBFS. Further replacement beyond this value causes reduction in strength.

Polymer concrete is produced from polymer binder, aggregates, and filler. Its curing follows the polymerization process once polymer additive is added, and can be accelerated through post-curing. In this study, the Orthophthalic- and Isophthalic-based polymer concrete (Ortho-PC and Iso-PC) were cured and investigated at different curing temperature (30oC, 50oC and 70oC) and period (1, 3, 6, 16, 24 hours) to complete the compressive strength development. Effect of curing temperature and period on apparent density, compressive strength, and morphology properties were investigated. The outcomes exhibited that all specimens had achieved full compressive strength within 6 hours of curing time at both 50oC and 70oC. When cured at 30oC, this went up to more than 16 hours of curing period to achieve the same compressive strength. The form of crosslinking at different curing conditions was captured in Scanning Electron Microscope, SEM images. Results also showed that curing temperature and period insignificant affected the apparent density. This study can be used as references to manufacturer, fabricator, and engineers when dealing with polymer concrete which goes for post-curing method as curing process.

The environmental footprint of the construction industry in general must be reduced. The process of manufacturing cement involves the release of appreciable amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. This paper summarizes the findings of an experimental study aiming at assessing the splitting tensile strength of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) in which 90% of the cement was replaced with various amounts of the industrial by-products including silica fume, fly ash, and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). Due to the high replacement ratio of cement with recycled industrial by-products, the produced SCC is referred in this study as green concrete. The compressive strength ranged between 30 MPa and 50 MPa and was produced with water/cementitious material ratios of 0.33 and 0.36. The splitting tensile strength was determined and a correlation was developed using regression analysis between the splitting tensile strength and compressive strength.

In this research, we have carried out the fundamental research on development of high strength concrete using the powder combining three industrial by-products as substitute of cement. The by-products used were fly ash of type II, ground granulated blast-furnace slag and gypsum. As a result,-it was possible to make a high strength paste, using vibrating compaction, with a water-powder ratio of 25%, The paste had compressive strength greater than 60 N/mm2 after curing for 91 days. Further we found it was possible to make high strength concrete of varying sand-aggregate ratios which all had a compressive strength of about 30 N/mm2 after curing for 28 days and 40 N/mm2 after curing for 91 days. Finally we obtained the optimum mixture proportion of concrete is unit water content = 170 kg/m3, water-powder ratio = 25%, and sand-aggregate ratio = 40%, For each of these results no cement was used.
