Abstract |
|
The demand of concrete is increasing day by day and Cement is used for satisfying the need of development of infrastructure facilities, 1 tone cement production generates 1 tone CO2, which adversely affect the environment. In order to reduce the use of OPC and CO2 generation, the new generation concrete has been developed such as GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE. Geopolymer requires Oven Curing in the varying range of 600C to 1000C for a period of 24 to 96 hours. The objective of the present work is to find the Optimum Alkaline Solution Ratio and to study the effect of GGBS on fly ash based Geopolymer concrete. Present work also considers the Effect of Oven Curing and Ambient temperature curing with Varying Alkaline Solution ratio. This research work focuses the development in field of GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE by replacing fly ash from 0 to 50% with GGBS and inspecting the Fresh Properties and Hardened Concrete properties at 7 days. |
