Abstract

In this article the influence of aggregate of geopolymer concrete used in concrete printing of buildings and structures, architectural elements on its thermal conductivity is studied. All tests were conducted on device for measuring thermal conductivity called PIT-2 designed to measure the thermal conductivity of building and heat-insulating materials under stationary thermal conditions in accordance with ISO 7345:1987* and ISO 9251:1987. As the fine aggregate most commonly used river sand, quartz sand, ceramic foam, as well as one new coniferous shavings were taken. The results of 4 tests to determine the thermal conductivity of geopolymer concrete with various aggregates are listed in the summary table in the study. According to the test results, the lowest coefficient of thermal conductivity has geopolymer concrete on ceramic foam. In this study geopolymer concrete is considered as the main material for concrete printing of the houses and architectural forms. This material reduces CO2 emissions in the atmosphere.
