    Abstract

    Due to the significant amount of carbon dioxide gas discharged into the atmosphere by the cement industry and the massive amounts of byproduct fly ash also turning into a significant concern. Geopolymers are demonstrating promise in lowering greenhouse gas footprints. The results of testing geopolymer ferrocement elements reinforced with varying numbers of wire mesh layers are presented in this article. The primary objective was to investigate the flexural behavior for geopolymer ferrocement elements by applying a uniformly distributed load by means of a layer of sand. Ferrocements measuring 600*600*25 mm were reinforced with 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 layers of welded square meshes. Test results showed that first crack and ultimate loads increase with increase in wire mesh layers embedded in the ferrocement samples. The element with 6 layers of wire mesh displayed highest deflection. It has been determined that geopolymer ferrocements are versatile materials with excellent deflection capacity along with environmental sustainability.
