TL;DR: Puertas et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the feasibility of using and alkaline activated ground Turkish slag to produce a mortar without Portland cement (PC) by using three different activators: liquid sodium silicate (LSS), sodium hydroxide (SH) and sodium carbonate (SC) at different sodium concentrations.

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive study on the durability properties of concrete containing polypropylene fiber and fly ash was performed, and the results showed that the positive interactions between polypropane fibers and fly-ash lead to the lowest drying shrinkage of fibrous concrete with fly ash.

TL;DR: The results showed that ANN can be an alternative approach for the predicting the compressive strength of ground granulated blast furnace slag concrete using concrete ingredients as input parameters.

TL;DR: In this article, high compressive and flexural tensile strength of alkali activated fly ash geopolymer mortars were presented, where NaOH was used as alkali medium that provides high pH value.

TL;DR: The results showed that ANN and FL can be alternative approaches for the predicting of compressive strength of silica fume concrete.
