To Analyse The Behaviour Of Concrete Using Innovative Material: An Experimental Study
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0
Abstract
Concrete is most widely used construction material in the world. It is fundamentally a mixture of aggregate and cements paste. This traditional concrete may be strong initially, but it tends to crack easily under the action of varying mechanical and environmental loads. Structures which are using this kind of concrete cannot resist the earth quake load without major damage or collapse. For this reason it is necessary to find out best an option which possesses higher compressive strength as well as good in tensile strength. In seismic region higher ductility in concrete can make a significant difference in the seismic response of the structure. This paper will perform experiments to test tensile strength as well as compressive resistance of the innovative material to be used in place of concrete. It will also explode the benefits of application to society and economic advantages while also taking into account environmental impact and cost by using such an innovative material.
