Biography
My research focuses on the development, field testing and numerical analysis of eco-friendly construction materials, with a particular focus on designing alkali-activated concrete mixes incorporating recycled aggregates for use in buildings and rigid pavements. I used techniques including surface characterization, spectroscopy, chemical analysis, destructive and non-destructive testing methods, as per IS and ASTM standards. I have worked on industry consultancy projects aimed at developing high-strength concrete. I also contribute to the academic community as a peer reviewer for Nature Scientific Reports.
