Abstract
This study is a continuation of the published research studies relevant to self-compacting geopolymer mortar (SCGM) prototype using fly ash. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of fly ash quantity on the rheological properties of SCGM. The flow properties include relative flow area (Gm) and relative funnel speed (Rm) is determined with the variation of fly ash to sand ratio (FA/S), volume of water to powder ratio (Vw/Vp), and superplasticizer to powder ratio (Sp/P). The test results exhibited that the increase in FA/S from 0.5 to 1.0 positively affected the Gm and Rm of SCGM. The maximum Gm of 10.90 and Rm of 1.43 were obtained for the SCGM mix having FA/S of 1.0, Vw/Vp of 1.02, and Sp/P of 3%. Overall, test results exhibited that with an increase in FA/S comparable flow properties of SCGM were achieved even at lower Vw/Vp and Sp/P. The recommended boundary for SCGM is proposed by comparing the experimental test result of this study with previous studies.
