I. INTRODUCTION
Concrete has become an indispensable construction material
and it is now used in greater quantities than any other material.
In the present context durability and sustainable development
are key issues for development. Ordinary Portland cement has
a high calcium base affecting the microclimate of concrete and
mortar. The interface bond between the cement paste and
aggregates can be improved with better pore structure and
minimized micro cracks using mineral admixtures like Fly
ash, Granulated blast furnace slag, Rice husk, Silica fume, etc.
Out of the above, the use of fly ash has gained prominence due
to growing awareness about the benefits and easy availability
of the good quality Fly ash.
Class F Fly ash is the Fly ash normally produced from burning
anthracite or bituminous coal that meets the applicable
requirements as SiO2 + Al2O3 + Fe2O3 70%. It has
pozzolanic properties.
Class C Fly ash is the Fly ash normally produced from lignite
or sub-bituminous coal that meets the applicable requirements
as SiO2 + Al2O3 + Fe2O3 70%. In addition to having
pozzolanic properties, also has some cementitious properties.
Some Class C fly ashes may contain lime contents higher than
10%.
Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete, also known as GFRC or
GRC, is a type of fiber reinforced concrete. Anti- Crack HD
