Development of Fibre Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete Shell (Frgps) Using Abaqus
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
Compression structures provide an alternate appropriate construction technology which optimises the use of material and natural resources. The funicular shell roof is one such compression structure, which ensures conservation of natural resources by utilising waste materials effectively and optimising the use of expensive steel and cement. Geopolymer concrete is eco-friendly and sustainable which possesses rapid strength gain, elimination of water curing, good mechanical and durability properties. In this point of view, here it has been proposed to form the fibre reinforced Funicular shell using Geopolymer concrete for more practical, economical, sustainable and affordable for the low cost housing system. In the study carried out the finite element analysis of 16mm thickness using geopolymer concrete of 8 M concentrations.
