Effect of recycled lime sludge, calcined clay and silica fume blended binder-based fibrous concrete with superior impact strength and fracture toughness
This study investigated the impact strength of fibrous concrete and its mode I, mode III, and mixed-mode I/III fracture toughness. Three binders were produced with varying compositions. The first binder was created by combining 95% clinker and 5% gypsum. The second binder consisted of 50% clinker, 3...
