Abstract
ABSTRACT:- This research was studying the effect of added aluminum fiber from the waste product of aluminum factories on the properties of concrete mixes. The study involved a reference concrete mix (M0) without admixture of aluminum and compare with three mixes (M3,M5,and M10) ,with three percent (3%,5%, and10%) from weight of cement, Specifically The thermal conductivity factor (k) was calculated depending on the equation of ACI code (122-R-2002) for mix concrete. The laboratory testes (slump flow, density, compressive strength) were doing for the cubes samples with dimension (150150150) to concrete mixes(M0,M3,M5),and M10) in age (7,14,and 28)day. The affect thermal conductivity factor of concrete was depended on the effect of workability, density and compressive strength with age sample. The results were getting from the testing found the density ,thermal conductivity factor and compressive strength decreasing with adding the admixture of aluminum (7%- 20%),(17%-45%) and (30%-54%) respectively, because of the reaction between the aluminum fiber with compound of cement cause the babble gas (Cellular concrete ) due to reduction in the density and compressive strength .
