Performance of Self-compacting Geopolymer Concrete with and Without Portland Cement at Ambient Temperature
The self-compacting geopolymer concrete (SCGC) characteristics with binary and ternary binder materials were studied via experimental data research. Binary and ternary use of fly ash (FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) with and without Portland cement (PC) have been studied in the production of SCGC. Therefore, a total of seven SCGC mixes were proportioned, having binder amount of 500 kg/m3 and a constant ratio (0.5) of alkali–binder. The reference mix included 50% GGBFS and 50% FA as the binder, whereas the other mixtures having binary and ternary mixtures of Portland cement (PC), fly ash (FA). The fresh and hardened characteristics were conducted. The results demonstrated that the utilization of GGBFS affected the fresh properties of SCGC negatively. However, it has a superior influence on the compressive strength of SCGC. Also, the incorporation of PC up to 20% affected the fresh characteristic adversely; however, the use of PC up to 20% has a positive impact on the compressive strength of the SCGC specimens.
