A Light weight ferrocement is a composite material consisting of cement-sand mortar (matrix) along with light weight ne aggregate ( In this research blast furnace slag is employed as light weight ne aggregate ) as a replacement of sand in some quantity and reinforced with layers of small diameter wire meshes . These studies mainly attempt to determine the rst crack strength, ultimate strength and the inuence of mesh wires on some of these properties. This work has been proposed to investigate on the Load-Deection and Moment-Curvature characteristics of lightweight ferrocement in monotonic and repeated loading. These results are expected to be useful in a better understanding of the exural behaviour of lightweight ferrocement and in the design of such members subjected to monotonic and repeated loading.

The need for retrofitting existing masonry structures is progressively becoming more important due to their continuous deterioration or need to meet the current design requirements of Eurocodes. Textile-Reinforced Mortar (TRM) composite systems have emerged as a sustainable repair methodology suitable for structure retrofitting. Nevertheless, their mechanical performance is still far from being fully investigated. This paper presents an experimental study on the tensile and bond behaviors of a new mortar-based composite consisting of mineral additives, blended cement mortar, and stainless-steel grid. Three different mineral additives (silica fume, fly ash, and blast furnace slag), in binary and ternary systems were used. The experimental study included uniaxial tensile coupon testing on composite specimens and bond tests on composite material applied to clay-brick substrate. The results obtained with the different textile-reinforced cement-based mortars were compared and are discussed here. It was found that, for mortar formulations containing mineral additives—such as fly ash or blast-furnace slag—with high tensile and bond strengths, an adequate adherence between the constituents was obtained. The developed mortar presents mechanical performances equivalent to traditional mortars without additives. The study contributes to the existing knowledge regarding the structural behavior of TRM and promotes the development of a low impact carbon cementitious matrix.

Concrete is a general composite material used in construction industry over many decades. Due to rapid Growth of infrastructure, the demand of concrete is raising day by day. This composite material mainly made up of cementitious material such as cement and natural sand. This cement production results in release of large amount of CO2 which directly effects environment pollution and Global warming and also, the usage of natural sand leads to environmental degradation. So, better way to reduction in CO2 emission by minimizing cement content with some other puzolonic materials such as Metaakolin,Fly ash, Ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBS) and This present Experiment is for to observe the cube and cylinder specimens strength of M40 grade of concrete at 7 days and 28 days with partial replacement of cement with ground granulated blast furnace slag ,Metakaolin and flyash @ 15%,30%,45% of binding material and natural sand with manufactured sand (M-sand)
