Abstract

Geopolymer Concrete (GC) is highly durable in corrosive environments, making it a viable material for repair. However, its initial compressive strength was below the 7 MPa required at 1-day age. Adding fine limestone (45 μm) can improve GC's density and early strength. This study explores the effects of adding 0, 3, 5, and 7% limestone and 1% sucrose superplasticizer to GC 16M. The compressive strength was tested at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days, along with slump, permeability, and resistivity tests to assess the durability. The results show that adding 5% limestone yields the optimal GC performance for repairing corrosive environments. The compressive strengths were 15.96, 28, 43, and 67.14 MPa at 3 days, 43 MPa at 7 days, and 67.14 MPa at 28 days, with a slump of 120 mm. The permeability and resistivity results were 0.128 E-16 m² and 57.87 kΩ-cm, indicating normal corrosion levels. These findings confirm that GC with 5% limestone meets the durability and strength requirements of repair materials in corrosive environments.

Abstract

Ultra High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) is an innovative material for such repairs because of its superior mechanical properties, strength, crack resistance, and durability. However, its high production cost, primarily due to using materials like silica fume and cement, is a significant drawback. This study explores the feasibility of incorporating fly ash and local materials into UHPCs to reduce costs while maintaining or improving their performance. As a supplementary cementitious material, fly ash enhances the compressive strength and workability of UHPC. The addition of limestone further supports early-age strength and workability. By evaluating the mechanical properties and workability of modified UHPCs, this research demonstrates the economic viability and environmental benefits of structural repairs. The results indicate that this modification can effectively enhance the early-age strength of UHPC, making it suitable for use as a repair material. The evaluation of the mechanical properties and workability of the modified UHPC suggests that these alternative materials can maintain or even improve the performance of UHPC. Thus, this approach offers a more economically viable and environmentally friendly solution for structural repairs.

Abstract

Fly ash-based geopolymer cement has recently attracted attention due to its application potential, as well as being an alternative binder with low emissions compared to conventional portland cement in concrete production. Studies intended on the mechanical properties and behaviors of structural elements produced from class C fly ash-based geopolymer concrete are important to improve the implementation. This study aimed to determine the effect of confinement on the behavior of class C fly ash-based geopolymer concrete and portland cement-based concrete. 6 specimens were made with class C fly ash-based geopolymer concrete tested under axial loading. Then, 6 specimens were made with ordinary portland cement-based concrete for comparison. The variable considered in this study is the pitch of confinement. The effect of the pitch of confinement on the enhancement strength and stress-strain of class C fly ash-based geopolymer concrete was obtained. The analytical model proposed by Richard et al. was selected to evaluate the ultimate compressive strength and ultimate compressive strain of confined geopolymer concrete in this study. The results showed that confinement reinforcement improved the strength and ductility of class C fly ash-based geopolymer concrete.

Abstract

The sulfate environment is one of the conditions that significantly affect the durability of concrete. Sulfate attack causes cracks and affects the quality of the concrete. Therefore, it is necessary to innovate concrete that can withstand the aggression of this sulfate attack. Geopolymer concrete is a breakthrough that can be developed as an alternative material without using Portland cement as the ingredients, yet by using class F fly ash as the primary source material. On the other hand, the availability of class C fly ash with high CaO content is highly abundant in Indonesia. The high calcium content in this fly ash will cause the fresh geopolymer concrete to harden rapidly. Previous studies used sucrose as an additive to overcome this rapid hardening problem. However, its effect on the geopolymer concrete exposed to sulfate ingression requires further investigation. In this study, the geopolymer concrete was produced by using class C fly ash and sucrose. The sulfate ingression was simulated by immersing the concrete specimen in the sodium sulfate solution while the mass changes and compressive strength were examined. pH measurement of the sodium sulfate solution was also carried out to provide a different perspective on the data analysis. Cylindrical specimens, measuring 10 cm x 20 cm, were produced using the dry-mixing method and the characteristic strength of 28 MPa according to SNI 2847–2019. From the results, geopolymer concrete with sucrose showed a high workability performance through the high slump value obtained. Nevertheless, the experimental results also indicated the declining strength of geopolymer concrete after the sulfate exposure. However, only a slight reduction was observed. The strength residue still satisfies the minimum requirement of SNI 2847-2019. It shows the potential of geopolymer concrete to be used as a construction material in a harsh environment with high sulfate content.

Abstract

Steel modular construction is an innovative technology that uses prefabricated volumetric module units manufactured in a factory and assembled on site via inter-module connections. However, this system's application in high-rise buildings is limited because the structural performance is strongly influenced by the inter-module connection mechanism. This technology uses a translational spring model to transfer loads between modules through inter-module connections. This approach uses threaded steel rod components, connection plates, shear keys, shear plates, and tie plates. This research aims to determine the maximum tensile capacity of the connection. It also aims to study stress distribution due to tensile forces and failure modes in vertical modular connections. This research uses the finite element method (FEM) to perform numerical analysis by applying monotonic loads. Simulation results indicate that the connection's maximum tensile capacity is 307.48 kN, distributed among two rods with capacities of 153.74 kN each at a displacement of 23.2 mm. The rod undergoes elastic deformation up to Fy = 900 MPa, followed by a plastic phase up to nearly Fu = 1,100 MPa, causing permanent strain and necking. Tensile failure occurred due to plasticity and necking conditions.

Abstract

The durability of concrete is an essential factor in construction as a means to enhance the quality of public facilities planning. The durability of concrete structures can be degraded due to several factors, one of the factors is sulfate attack concrete. Expose to magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) causes more aggressive damage compared to sodium sulfate. The negative effect of sulfate exposure is the accelerated formation of microcracks that lead to concrete deterioration. This study aims to investigate the influence of expose to a 5% magnesium sulfate solution on the mechanical properties of Portland composite cement concrete (PCC). Sulfate exposure was conducted after the PCC concrete was cured in water for 28 days. Observations and testing were carried out in four stages: before exposure, after 28, 56, and 90 days. The compressive strength of the concrete increased by 8.78% after 56 days of exposure but decreased by 7.2% from the 56-day strength during the 90-day exposure. The modulus of elasticity, Poisson's ratio, tensile strength, and fracture energy were directly proportional to the compressive strength values generated during sulfate exposure. Additionally, the mass of the concrete increased by 0.87% after 56 days of exposure and then decreased to 0.56% during the 90-day exposure.

Abstract

Geopolymer concrete, an eco-friendly alternative, employs silica, alumina, and alkaline activators. While wet mixing has been extensively studied, its limitations, such as impracticality, quick setting, and low workability, are overcome by the dry mixing method. Study by previous research is limited only to compressive strength, flexural strength, and shrinkage. However, research on bond strength, crucial for concrete-reinforcement adhesion, is limited. This study investigates bond strength through pull-out tests using consistent concrete materials, including Type C fly ash, 12M NaOH, and an alkali ratio of 1:1. Specimens with varying reinforcement diameters (D10, D12, D16) and additional transverse reinforcement (f6-150) were tested. Bond stress averages at D10, D12, and D16 are 25.80 MPa, 25.36 MPa, and 24.25 MPa. Reinforcement diameter directly influences bond strength, with larger diameters yielding greater bond stress.

Abstract

This study discusses geopolymer-reinforced concrete beam's shear strength capacity by experimental observation using high-calcium fly ash as the main binder. This study observed the influence of shear span per effective depth ratio due to the geopolymer concrete beam's shear behavior and strength capacity. Two beams are designed to have diagonal tensile cracks; hence the shear failure state could be obtained. Each beam has similar properties by 150 mm in width, 250 mm in height, 1800 mm in length, 2D16 as the flexure bar reinforcement, and stirrups of Ø6-250 with 20 mm concrete cover. The research employed the four-point load bending testing with the load span difference of each beam, which will later be the study variable. The things sought in this study include the peak load-deflection curve, the shear capacity that occurs in geopolymer concrete beams, and the shear capacity comparison with ACI 318-19. The results of the tests that have been carried out show that type A geopolymer-reinforced concrete beam was more ductile than type B beams, with a percentage difference of about 21.49% in deflection. The shear strength at the ratio a/d of 2 was 115,04 kN, and the ratio a/d of 2.5 was 89,00 kN. As well as a comparison of the shear strength of the test results with calculations according to ACI 318-19 shows a ratio of 1.69. So it can be concluded that ACI 318-19 calculations were conservative.

Abstract

This paper deals with numerical modeling of geopolymer reinforced concrete loaded under flexure using nonlinear finite element analysis. The modeled specimen was obtained from the existing literature and is tested under the four-point bending load. The numerical simulation uses an in-house limited element package called 3D-NLFEA, which utilizes ordinary concrete's multi-surface plasticity model. Since the concrete constitutive model used is for ordinary Portland cement, adjusting the input parameter is required to predict the behavior of geopolymer reinforced concrete. The focus on the discussion was limited to the modeling of the specimen, the moment-curvature result, and the crack pattern between the numerical model and the available experimental test. The simulation found that the predicted moment-curvature relationship using the 3D-NLFEA package was 1.3 to 2.4 % lower than the test result. The crack pattern was controlled by flexure, which was observed in the experimental test and numerical simulation. The predicted crack lengths for modeled beam using 3D-NLFEA were within the minimum and maximum measured crack lengths from the test result.

Abstract

Geopolymer concrete that has polymer formwork is very likely to be used as reinforced concrete material with several advantages. The advantages of geopolymer concrete when compared to portland cement concrete are: resistant to acidic environments (corrosion resistance), better bond strength of reinforcement with concrete material, stable at high temperatures, higher fracture energy. Previous experimental studies found that the tensile strength, bond strength, and fracture energy of geopolymer concrete were better, leading to the hypothesis that the ductility value of geopolymer concrete was better than portland cement concrete. The identification of ductility values based on the compressive strength of concrete will be carried out in research using the finite element method using the 3D ATENA program. Several specimens with compressive strength of 25 MPa, 30 MPa, 35 MPa, 40 MPa, and 45 MPa were compared with their ductility values. The results showed that the 25 MPa specimen had the highest ductility value with 5.33, while the lowest ductility value is 45 MPa specimen with 3.39.
