Investigating the Influence of Recycled Coarse Aggregate and Steel Fiber on the Rheological and Mechanical Properties of Self-Compacting Geopolymer Concrete

This experimental study presents the effect of steel fiber (SF) and recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) on the fresh and hardened properties of Self-compacting geopolymer concrete (SCGC). Sixteenth alkali-activated based metakaolin (MK) concrete mixtures with constant binder content of 500 kg/m3 incorpo...
