Özet |
This study examines the thermal, mechanical, and durability performance of fly ash-based geopolymer foam concrete (GFC). It incorporates recycled crumb rubber (CR) as a lightweight aggregate and is reinforced with polypropylene fibers (PPF) and glass fibers (GF). The goal is to develop sustainable, high-performance GFC for energy-efficient and eco-friendly construction. Seven mixtures were tested with varying fiber types and dosages: PPF (1 % and 2 %), GF (1 % and 2 %), and hybrid reinforcement (0.5 % and 1 % each of PPF and GF). The results show significant improvements in key properties. The developed GFC achieved compressive strength of up to 8 MPa, aligning with commercial foam concrete (5–10 MPa) and geopolymer-based foams (2–12 MPa). While it does not represent a breakthrough in durability, the material offers superior lightweight properties, enhanced thermal insulation, and … |
