Machine learning and Weibull-based reliability analysis of impact-resistant geopolymer concrete with construction demolition waste and natural fibers

This study presents a novel impact-resistant geopolymer concrete (GPC) incorporating construction and demolition waste powder, brick waste powder, slag, recycled concrete aggregates (RCA), and natural fibers (banana, jute, and pineapple) to simultaneously enhance its mechanical p...

Valorization of slag and banana leaf ash in five natural fiber-reinforced sustainable cementitious composites: early age mechanical and microstructural insights

Portland cement is highly energy-consuming, and its CO 2 emissions raise environmental concerns in the construction sector. This has prompted the desire for sustainable additional cementitious materials, such as slag and banana leaf ash (BLA). Nevertheless, the current literature...
