A Study on non Destructive Tests and Flexural Strengths of Geopolymer Concrete Using Combination of Different Fine Aggregates

Geopolymer concrete is a new technology that deserves more attention in the rapidly evolving sustainable construction industry. Furthermore, to avoid the depletion of natural resources, by-product waste management technologies are essential. Today, river sand is in short supply. DMS (Dredged Marine...

Description
Summary:Geopolymer concrete is a new technology that deserves more attention in the rapidly evolving sustainable construction industry. Furthermore, to avoid the depletion of natural resources, by-product waste management technologies are essential. Today, river sand is in short supply. DMS (Dredged Marine Sand), on the other hand, which faces disposal and land acquisition issues, proves to be a viable alternative to river sand. In this paper, a mixture of M-Sand and DMS was used in place of river sand, and non-destructive, Flexural strength of beam by monotonic loading and cyclic loadings were investigated. The findings indicated that DMS has attained flexural characteristics and with regard to cracks, very minor and vertical cracks are observed in all beams as in the case of monotonic loading. Further, they originate from the tension zone
