EXPERIMENTAL BEHAVIOR OF SELF COMPACTING GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE WITH PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT BY FLY ASH AND SILICA FUME
SCGC - self compacting geopolymer concrete. Fly ash,Silica Fume.
The Experimental Behavior of Self Compacting Geopolymer Concrete (SCGC) by partial replacement of Fly ash with Silica Fume was investigated in this paper. The workability related fresh properties for SCGC were assessed through Slumpcone, V-bee consistency test methods. Hardened concrete tests were limited to compressive, splitting tensile and flexural strengths, for the age of 7, 14 and 28 days. After casting the specimens along with steel moulds were placed in the oven for 48 hours after that the specimen are maintained in Ambient curing until the test day. The results indicate that the addition of silica fume as a partial replacement of fly ash results in the loss of workability; nevertheless, the mechanical properties of hardened SCGC are significantly improved by incorporating silica fume.Self-compacting geopolymer concrete is prepared from source materials of Fly ash and Silica Fume mixed with alkali activators such as Sodium Hydroxide and sodium silicate. Super Plasticizer is added to achieve the properties of self compacting concrete. The experimental investigation is carried out in one phase, the phase M25 grade of concrete is produced by replacing 25%, 35%, 45% of SCGC with 5% of silica fume at each mix as of sand.
