Geopolymer Concrete

Geopolymer concrete is made by waste materials such as fl y ash or slag from iron and metal production are used, which helps lead to a cleaner environment. The use of this concrete helps to reduce the wastes and also reduces carbon emission by reducing Portland cement demand. Composition of Geopolymer Concrete Ø   Fly ash Ø   GGBS Ø   Fine aggregates and Ø   Coarse aggregates Ø   Catalytic liquid system (CLS): It is an alkaline activator solution (AAS) for GPCC.  It is a combination of solutions of alkali silicates and hydroxides, besides distilled water. Application ofGeopolymer Concrete Ø   Construction of Pavement Ø   Retaining walls Ø   Water tanks Ø   Precast Bridge deck Properties of Geopolymer Concrete Mechanical property of Geopolymer Concrete Ø   Geopolymer concrete will get its strength faster than Ordinary Portland cement concrete. Compressive strength of Geopolymer Concrete have been found up to 70 MPa.   Other Properti
