Relationship Between Flexural and Compressive Strength of Concrete Made of Alkali Activated Binder
The cement industry contributes to 5% of global CO2 emissions and is thus one of the biggest contributors to global warming. Alkali-Activated binders offer a more sustainable solution to the problem, as they are produced from industrial wastes such as fly ash and slag. Their production has a lower environmental impact in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. Hence, AABs are sustainable and can be considered as green construction materials. Most research into the field of alkali-activated binders indicates the superiority of AABs in terms of mechanical properties and durability as compared to portland cement. This study aims to find the correlation between the flexural strength and compressive strength of alkali activated binder concrete. This is achieved by formulating a regression model which correlates the flexural and compressive strengths of AAB concrete by incorporating grade of concrete as a factor. The results of this study will promote the practical use of AABs as an alternative to portland cement.
