A RESEARCH ON THE PRODUCTION OF SILICA FUME ADOBE

Abstract

In this research the use of silica fume in the mix proportion of adobe as a component and the strength of silica fume adobe is investigated. For this purpose, some amount of cement is added to the adobe, and 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% silica fume by weight of cement is added to the adobe mixture. Three samples from each of the percent classes are prepared. With these prepared samples, strength tests, water resistance tests, and wind resistance tests are conducted. According to the test results, the addition of silica fume to the adobe can be said to increase the strength and water resistance of adobe. According to the results of the wind resistance test, no significant change is observed in the samples that were painted with plastic paint. In the samples painted with lime, very fine visible cracks were formed and partial disintegrations were observed.
