| This study evaluates the physical, mechanical, durability, and environmental properties of geopolymer mortars (GMs) produced using waste tire steel fibers (WTSFs), hemp fibers (HFs), waste marble powder (WMP), and recycled fine aggregates (RFAs). Within the scope of this study, fibers were incorporated as single and hybrid types at 0.5% and 1% by volume. The addition of HFs generally reduced dry unit weight, as well as compressive and flexural strength but increased fracture energy by nearly three times. The addition of WTSFs improved compressive and flexural strengths by up to 42% and enhanced fracture energy by 840%. Hybrid fibers increased the strength values by 21% and the fracture energy by up to four times, demonstrating a clear synergistic effect between HFs and WTSFs in enhancing crack resistance and structural stability. In the durability tests conducted within the scope of this study, HFs burnt at 600 °C, while WTSFs showed signs of corrosion under freeze-thaw and acid conditions; however, hybrid fibers combined the benefits of both materials, resulting in an effective preservation of internal structure. The fact that the materials used in the production of GM samples were waste or recycled products reduced the total cost to 188 USD/m, and thanks to these materials and the carbon-negative properties of HFs, CO emissions were reduced to 338 kg CO/m. The presented study demonstrates the potential of using recycled and waste materials to create sustainable building materials in the construction industry. |
