Abstract :

Abstract The usage of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) creates a risk because to CO2 emissions. Construction time can be reduced due to the high strength of GPC at an early age and the ambient curing of GPC. In addition to having improved strength and durability properties, GPC has a wide range of advantages as well. To avoid this, pozzolanic material is used as a replacement for OPC. Alkaline activates them to generate alumino silicate gel that functions as an adhesive in masonry. Silica fume (SF) is used as an alternative to cement in this investigation. With increasing percentages of lengthwise reinforcement, the torsion response of regular concrete along with SF-based geopolymer concrete is studied. Torque, twist, stiffness, degradation, curving ductility, torsionĀ and fracture width was all compared.
