Original Abstract

The main aim of the article is to analyze the state of the art in short steel fiber-reinforced geopolymers, taking into consideration also waste fibers. Steel fibers are currently the most widely applied additive to composites in the building industry. The work is dedicated to the usage of short steel fibers and the mechanical properties of geopolymer composites. Research methods applied in the article are a critical analysis of the literature sources, including a comparison of the new material with other, traditional concrete materials used in similar applications, especially in the construction industry. The results of the research are discussed in a comparative context. They indicate that the addition of fibers is an efficient method not only for improving compressive and flexural strength, but also mechanical properties such as fracture toughness. The potential applications in the construction industry as well barriers and challenges for the effective application of geopolymer materials reinforced with steel fibers are presented. Further research directions are discussed.
