Geopolymers made from slag and fly ash are identified as a potential competitor to cement due to their lower carbon emissions and cost. Research shows that geopolymers can provide similar strength and durability as cement while emitting no carbon during production and being up to 15% cheaper. Several countries are investing in developing and commercializing geopolymer concrete, with Australia being an early adopter - the Wellcamp airport used over 30,000 cubic meters of geopolymer concrete, saving 6,600 tons of carbon emissions during construction. The first building made with geopolymer concrete was the Global Change Institute at the University of Queensland in Australia.

A ceramic is an inorganic compound, non-metallic, solid material comprising metal, non-metal or metalloid atoms primarily held in ionic and covalent bonds. This article gives an overview of ceramic materials from the point of view of materials science.
The crystallinity of ceramic materials ranges from highly oriented to semi-crystalline, vitrified, and often completely amorphous (e.g., glasses). Most often, fired ceramics are either vitrified or semi-vitrified as is the case with earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. Varying crystallinity and electron consumption in the ionic and covalent bonds cause most ceramic materials to be good thermal and electrical insulators (extensively researched in ceramic engineering). With such a large range of possible options for the composition/structure of a ceramic (e.g. nearly all of the elements, nearly all types of bonding, and all levels of crystallinity), the breadth of the subject is vast, and identifiable attributes (e.g. hardness, toughness, electrical conductivity, etc.) are hard to specify for the group as a whole. General properties such as high melting temperature, high hardness, poor conductivity, high moduli of elasticity, chemical resistance and low ductility are the norm,[1] with known exceptions to each of these rules (e.g. piezoelectric ceramics, glass transition temperature, superconductive ceramics, etc.). Many composites, such as fiberglass and carbon fiber, while containing ceramic materials, are not considered to be part of the ceramic family.[2]

This document discusses using ceramic waste as an aggregate in concrete. It presents the results of an experiment replacing regular aggregate with 10-40% ceramic waste aggregate. The highest compressive strengths were achieved with 10-30% replacement. Replacing over 30% resulted in lower strengths. The conclusion is that ceramic waste can be effectively used in concrete as both sand and coarse aggregate up to certain percentages without negatively impacting strength properties. This reduces waste in the ceramic industry and costs for raw materials in concrete production.

Concrete is composed of cement, water and aggregates that undergo a chemical reaction called hydration to harden. When exposed to high temperatures in fires, concrete's properties change as it undergoes dehydration, shrinkage, and decomposition of its compounds. The temperature reached in different types of fires can vary greatly from over 1000°C for fuels like hydrogen to under 1000°C for materials like wood. The resistance of reinforced concrete in fire depends on the type of aggregates used and the concrete cover thickness over the reinforcing steel bars. Damage assessment after a fire considers the fire duration and temperatures reached, with repair methods including removing damaged layers or applying calcium silicate to strengthen the surface.

Study on the fire resistant design of reinforced concrete flexural memberseSAT Journals
Abstract The inherent fire resistance property of concrete is one of its benefits. This thesis mainly focuses on fire resistant design of RC flexural member’s viz. beams and slabs using finite element software ANSYS 13. Both thermal and thermo-structural analysis was carried out for various parameters. Thermal analysis is done by taking into concern several parameters viz. aggregate type, cover to the reinforcement, concrete thickness, strength of concrete etc. The results are compared with IS 456:2000 provisions. Thermo-structural analysis is conducted for various support conditions and load ratio. Elements were modeled using SOLID 70 element and LINK 33 element for thermal analysis. For thermo-structural analysis instead of SOLID 70 element, SOLID 65 element was used. The parameters having a paramount influence on fire resistance are support conditions, dimensions of members, action of members under load, cover to the reinforcement, type of aggregates etc. Effect of the parameters on fire resistance is found out. Techniques to develop fire resistance are then found out. Moreover, it is found out that by changing some parameters, better fire resistant design for structural elements can be achieved. Key Words: Thermal analysis, Thermo-structural analysis, SOLID 70, SOLID 65, LINK 33
To minimize loss of life and property, structure of building should be established to allow time for evacuation from place location of the fire and to provide the structure and prevent the collapse of buildings having high fire risk rate. Considered most of buildings made by concrete in our country, integrity of concrete must be provided during the time period escape from fire. Particularly, buildings and fire compartments having high fire risk, must be designed to provide high strength and to minimize the loss of goods. Forming fireproof compartments may be accomplished by, treatment of the weak points and determinating temperature changes on the concrete components. Fire resistance of concrete increased by adding puzzolan additives. In the study, behavior of concrete exanimate at different temperatures and optimal concrete composition evaluated. Use of such concrete built with laboratories and flammable and chemical gases or liquids stores, will reduce the life losses significantly. Moreover, studies in the light of the findings obtained that, usage of concrete in those locations has a great significance, in the creation of a secure environment during evacuation and quenched period.

Nowadays, airplanes are taking a huge contribution in our life. We all depend on air flight to travel from place to place. The most important thing we look for in our air flights is safety. This project considers adding more safety to air flights and airports.
When a plan lands, the force of friction generates heat that can lead to a spark or destroy Tires that consequently can lead to a fire or a disaster. So we added some aggregates to concrete that will absorb heat and thus guarantees us safer flight.
The document summarizes several experiments conducted to learn about the properties of concrete. It describes mixing concrete with different ratios of cement, water, aggregates and additives. It finds that adding salt hardens concrete faster while sugar slows hardening. Different ratios of coarse to fine aggregates and water to cement affect the density and strength. Reinforcing concrete with cotton was unsuccessful while bitumen and glue made the concrete waterproof, allowing its use for farming strawberries and tomatoes with seawater. The students learned how concrete's properties depend on its formulation and components.
The document summarizes several activities conducted by students to learn about concrete. In Activity 1, the students searched online about what concrete is, its uses, and how it is formed. They found that concrete is a mixture of cement, coarse and fine aggregates, and water, and it is used in building houses and bridges. In Activity 2, the students observed how cement hardens when mixed with water, salt, or sugar. They found that salt makes cement harden faster while sugar makes it harden slower. In Activity 3, the students compared densities of different concrete mixtures and found that mixtures with equal amounts of fine and coarse aggregates had higher density and strength. They also tested properties like strength and brittleness and how mixture components

Concrete is a composite material composed mainly of water, aggregate, and cement.
During construction, a substantial amount of natural resources are consumed, which makes the construction industry a strong candidate for reusing waste as raw materials. In particular, road construction is a unique case. The road network is large and disseminated throughout a wide geographical region. For these reasons, there is great potential to reuse waste materials in both construction and maintenance of roads.
