Experimental Investigation on Geo-Polymer Concrete Cured at Ambient Temperature
Portland cement concrete industry has grown-up extremely in recent years. It will drastically increases uses cement for infrastructure development throughout worldwide. However, Portland cement concrete shows harmful effects such as durability and CO2 emission. Many concrete structures have shown serious worsening, way before their proposed service life, mainly those structures constructed in a corrosive environment such sea shore and water logged areas. India being largest coal fly ash producer in the world, from thermal power plant, that is waste product and available in huge quantity, with very minimum rate. The waste product as fly ash is to be used as a cement replacement material in concrete and to achieve a very good strength of geo-polymer concrete. A trail mixture design of cement replacement materials such as Fly ash, GGBFS where used. A mix proportions of 10% GGBFS & 90% fly ash, 20% GGBFS & 80% fly ash and 30% GGBFS & 70% fly ash. From above mix proportion a best result is obtained 30% GGBFS & 70% fly ash, that is compressive strength is 42.44 N/mm2 and spit tensile strength is 3.345 N/mm2. Above strength parameters of geopolymenr concrete is good for construction residential and low rise building. By using geopolymenr concrete, we can reduce emission CO2 from construction industry.
