COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF LIGHTWEIGHT FERROCEMENT PANELS WITH DIFFERENT INFILLS
2021
The main objective of this investigation is to study the structural behavior of Ferrocement panels when subjected to axial compressive and flexural load. Ferrocement wall panels with different infill materials of size .6m x .6m x 0.05m were cast and tested under axial and flexural load. Experimental studies and research must determine the results in terms of compressive strength, flexural strength, weight and strength to weight ratio. These results were compared as different infill materials such as rubber board, foam board and sand are being used. The response of the Ferrocement wall panels subjected to axial compressive and flexural loading and from above results whichever infills are satisfactory and optimum, then it can be used as a wall panel in construction sector. It is hoped the overview on this subject matter could be used as guidance for future research on developing a lightweight sandwich panel system in low to medium rise building construction.
