    Properties of alkali-activated fly ash :

     I studied different research papers based on the above topic and I concluded that :

    • The mortar and concrete made with Portland cement, free activated fly ash develop a highest mechanical strength
    • Less time required to gain enough strength
    • It has a moderate modulus of elasticity
    • Better Bond formation of Steel reinforcement
    • Its shrinkage capacity is very less as compared to ordinary Portland cement concrete

    Optimisation of alkali-activated fly ash :

    • Actually conductive alkali-activated Ash is formed using carbon fibres
    • Optimisation of alkali-activated fly ash is done when we use 0.3% Carbon fibre content 25 to 30 per cent ceramsite content and 70% slag content

    Thank you.

    Water content is determined by the Karl Fischer titration method and it consists of only water i.e moisture content. ... Loss on drying (LOD) is determined by heating the sample below its melting point in an oven and it includes all volatile matter including water content and solvents.

    What is minimum pressure gauge for GI testing?

    Minimum pressure gauge for galvanized iron testing : Minimum yield strength of finished top tube should be 50000 psi Minimum tensile strength for the finished tube shall be 55000 psi The mechanical property of the finished surface of the cube is mainly depended upon the tube size and gauge. GenerallRead more

    Minimum pressure gauge for galvanized iron testing :

    • Minimum yield strength of finished top tube should be 50000 psi
    • Minimum tensile strength for the finished tube shall be 55000 psi
    • The mechanical property of the finished surface of the cube is mainly depended upon the tube size and gauge.
    • Generally galvanized iron pipes are used for the distribution of treated as well as raw water in rural and urban areas
    • Such type of pipes are very cheaper and its weight is very very light so that it can handle anywhere.
    • The tensile strength of galvanized iron pipe shall be at least 320 Newton per mm square.
    • The test shall be carried out on full section cut from the selected tubes in accordance with IS1608 and IS 12278

    Flexural strength is the maximum strength (stress) either yield or up to fracture that a structure or element or a member could bear. It could be measures in terms of modulus of rupture at yield also. Where in modulus of rupture is just showing the present stress condition within the member or elemeRead more

    Flexural strength is the maximum strength (stress) either yield or up to fracture that a structure or element or a member could bear. It could be measures in terms of modulus of rupture at yield also.

    Where in modulus of rupture is just showing the present stress condition within the member or element itself. If the member is on the verge of failure i.e on the verge of fracture than the modulus of rupture will give Flexural strength.
