Geopolymers are new materials for fire- and heat-resistant coatings and adhesives‚ medicinal applications‚ high-temperature ceramics‚ new binders for fire-resistant fiber composites‚ toxic and radioactive waste encapsulation and new cements for concrete. The properties and uses of geopolymers are being explored in many scientific and industrial disciplines: modern inorganic chemistry‚ physical chemistry‚ colloid chemistry‚ mineralogy‚ geology‚ and in other types of engineering process technologies

BRE Concrete mix design method A popular simplified mix design method is that from BRE. Compressive strength is‚ in general‚ related to durability. The greater the strength the more durable the concrete. To satisfy the required compressive strength‚ a value for water/cement (w/c) ratio is estimated for an appropriate test age (generally 28 days) and cement type. Tables in the BRE mix design handbook are consulted relating aggregate:cement (a/c) ratio‚ workability and water:cement (w/c) ratio for

Procedure for mixing concrete 1. Weigh out the designed proportions for a 1.6 cubic foot batch of concrete. a. Divide the water into two buckets‚ one with about 3/4 of the water. If using air entraining‚ put the air entraining agent in the 3/4 water bucket. 2. Put about half the coarse aggregate‚ half the fine aggregate and the 3/4 bucket of water with air entraining in the mixer. 3. Start the mixer and mix until the aggregate is thoroughly wet 4. Carefully add all the cement with the mixer
