Newest firstIn this work, to enhance the compressive strength and evaluate the fire resistance of hemp concrete, we incorporated mineral additives such as FBC fly ash and metakaolin. This paper investigates the thermal conductivity, compressive strength, flammability, and fire resistance of hempcrete and the influence of mineral additives in the form of fly ash from fluidized bed combustion (FBC) and metakaolin on these prope…
Open article record in new tab ↗Organic admixtures based on polysaccharides are used in construction for modifying the properties of mortars and concretes. Gum arabic is an example of a polysaccharide-based biopolymer. The aim of the article was to investigate the possibilities of improving the strength parameters of a binder paste based on hydrated lime and metakaolin. The paste was modified with powdered gum arabic at 1%, 3% and 5% (by mass) a…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hempcrete is a sustainable biocomposite that can reduce buildings' embodied energy while improving energy performance and indoor environmental quality. This research aims to develop novel insulating hemp-lime composites using innovative binder mixes made of recycled and low-embodied energy pozzolans. The characterization of composites' mechanical and hygrothermal properties includes measuring compressive strength,…
