Compressive Strength Study based on Fly Ash Geopolymer Concrete at the age of 28 days under very High Temperature

Abstract

Due to creeping process at the burning material, material’s elastic modulus and yield strength will decrease.Three fire protection system are exist in handling the fire problem: active fire protection, passive fire protection, and safety management. In correlation with material problem due to fire, passive fire protection is a strategy to counter it. This paper presents the results of fire protection by using Suralaya fly ash geopolymer concrete. Three molaritas of geopolymer concrete mixture design are 2M, 4M, and 6 M. Sodium Silicate (Na2SiO3) and Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) are used as alkaline activator. The results of the experiment were analysed by compressive strength for the optimum values. This study found that the value of compressive strength of steam curing is higher than that of water curing, the value of geopolymer concrete compressive strength of 2M is higher than that of 4M, and the value of geopolymer concrete compressive strength of 6M is higher than that of 4M.
