A Review of Shear Strength of Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete under Ambient Condition

Abstract:

Geopolymer is an innovative cement substitute constructed of alkali-activated cementitious materials (AACMs). Researchers interested in improving concrete's structural resistance, toughness, and flexure tensile strength have turned their focus to geo-polymer concrete binders. To completely understand how geopolymer binders act under these circumstances, it is necessary to investigate their behavior when exposed to multiaxial stress states. The purpose of this review is to examine geopolymer cement in depth and to get a better understanding of its mechanical characteristics. In this analysis, we see that Geopolymer concrete, in particular its compressive and tensile strengths, provides higher resilience. GPC is an eco-friendly material since it reduces emissions and requires less water for curing. Incorporating hybrid polypropylene and steel fibers to ternary mixed geopolymer concrete improves its mechanical qualities.
