MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FIBER REINFORCED GEOPOLYMER MORTAR AND CONCRETE
The research objective is to investigate the mechanical properties of a specific kind of geopolymer mortar and concrete using the fiber reinforced geopolymer binder as the original material. Experimental methods which are compressive strength cylinder test, splitting cylinder test and three-point bending test using notched beam were conducted. Conclusions are (1) When the W/B ratio is around 20%, geopolymer fabricated mortar and concrete could get acceptable mechanical properties. (2) Further research on the structural performance of the geopolymer concrete is recommended for practical use in construction sites.
