Abstract

The continuous reduction in raw resources in the construction industry has reached the alarming stage such that the usage of waste by-products from various industries has become necessity. Fly ash had used in the construction industry for the last decade; but there a need for more experimental studies with other materials as a substitution. Concrete is better for compression. Hence, it used in compression regions. The M25 concrete had used to prepare both GPC cubes. The trial mix is test for compressive strength. Tension, compression, and flexural has done for 28 days of curing of the beams. Development of flexural cracks is relatively less in geopolymer Compression strength increased from 17.25 MPa to 37.25 MPa in the period of 7 days to 28 days for conventional specimens. In the GPC samples, the compression strength increased from 21.4 to 43.6 MPa for the same period.
