The rise in population and improvement in the lifestyle of human beings has caused a rapid
increase in energy demands for buildings in the present day. An upsurge in energy demand …

Researchers have been driven to investigate sustainable alternatives to cement production,
such as geopolymers, due to the impact of global warming and climate change resulting …

High temperature and saturation situations are conditions that a building material can
experience due to fire, heavy rains and floods, for example. For this reason, the application …

In current research work, chitosan (Chi) was subjected to subsequent physical and chemical
modifications by incorporating kaolin clay (KA) into its polymeric structure, and crosslinking …

In this paper, the hydration process and mechanical properties of UHPC matrix incorporated
