Abstract | Given the recent attention towards renewable and environmentally friendly technologies, usage of geopolymer concrete, a greener substitute for traditional Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) concretes is becoming more prevalent than ever. However, unconfined Geopolymer concrete exhibits much higher levels of brittleness compared to that of OPC concretes. Ductility of geopolymer concrete can be increased by lateral confinement. Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) confined concrete, demonstrates a major gain in ductility and strength compared to that of steel confined concrete. |
