Enhancing Compressive Strength of Geopolymer Concrete with Micro and Macro Steel Fibers: A Study on Fiber-Reinforced Geopolymers

By Kshama Lovanshi and Harsh Rathore

Abstract: AbstractThis research investigates the impact of micro and macro steel fibers on the compressive strength ofgeopolymer concrete (GPC). The study utilizes locally sourced materials, including river sand,granite aggregates, fly ash, and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in a 50:50 ratio asalumino-silicate materials. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na₂SiO₃) were employedas activators, with the…

Stabilization of Foundation Base Soil for Enhanced Bearing Capacity and Lateral Load Resistance

By Birendra Kumar Singh

Abstract: Abstract The foundation of any structure plays a pivotal role in ensuring its stability and durability. The soil beneath the foundation must possess sufficient bearing capacity to support the structure's load, while also resisting the uplift pressure exerted by groundwater, especially in saturated conditions. Inadequate bearing capacity can lead to settlement or even structural failure.…
