INTRODUCTION
Concerns about Global Warming- Need to investigate an
(or)
Development of Geopolymer Concrete (GPC)
Method Of Preparation of
GPC
CONSTITUENT MATERIALS:
Fly ash
MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
The optimum GPC mix is Fly ash: Fine aggregate: Coarse
ADVANTAGES OF GPC
Previous studies on Geopolymer Concrete have shown the
following advantages :
Cutting the worlds carbon di oxide.
The price of fly ash is low.
Better compressive strength.
Fire proof.
Low permeability.
Highly durable.
Non toxic and bleed free.
Eco-friendly.
Excellent properties within
DISADVANTAGES
High cost of alkaline solution
Bringing of source material to location
Industry regulations
Lack of awareness
Skilled labor requirement
APPLICATIONS OF GPC
Pre-cast concrete products like railway sleepers, electric
CONCLUSION
