  NDT Studies on Geopolymer Concrete with Addition of Natural Fibers

  By R. Gobinath, Asha Mohan, Shobana K.S. Subramanian

  Abstract: Modern day construction activities are not proved to be enviro-friendly and most of the building materials we use for the construction purpose consumes lot of natural resources and have huge carbon foot print. Innovations in civil engineering industry is also taking place apart from usage of regular materials, once such innovative material that has potential to reduce the carbon foot print is Geopolymer. In our country the research in Geopolymer …

  Studies on Effect of Various Curing Methods in Glass Fibre Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete with 12 Molarity Alkaline Solutions

  By R. Gobinath, T. Sathanandham, Alexpandian K., Amit Abraham, J. Udayakumar, R. Pugalendhi

  Abstract: Due to the increasing environmental impacts associated with ordinary Portland cement, need to develop alternative binders to make concrete, is steadily increasing. Geopolymer concrete is the result of the reaction of materials containing Alumino-silicate with concentrated alkaline solution to produce an inorganic polymer binder. Alkaline solutions used were Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Silicate. This paper presents results of an experimental study on the compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile …
