Experimental Investigation on Axially Loaded AASC and TVC Square Columns

Sandhya Mohan P.V, R. Mourougane, Mala C

Abstract


In this present project, an experimental investigation was carried out to study the behaviour of alkali-activated slag concrete (AASC) and traditionally vibrated concrete (TVC) columns under axial loading. The dimensions of the columns were 150 mm × 150 mm × 1219 mm to mimic the short column behaviour. The longitudinal steel ratio was varied for the specimens. Different criteria such as load deformation behaviour, compression stiffness and surface strain were studied. Test results for both AASC and TVC columns were compared. From the results, it was observed that the AASC columns performed better compared to TVC columns.
