EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON GLASS POWDER BASED GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE

Meer over het boek

The investigation explores the use of Geopolymer as an alternative binder in concrete to address rising cement costs and its high carbon emissions. By completely replacing cement with a mix of fly ash, Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GGBS), and waste glass, the study aims to create a sustainable concrete solution that can be cured at ambient temperatures. The research focuses on developing a mix design for G40 Tertiary Blended Geopolymer concrete, examining its mechanical and durability properties while utilizing sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate as activators.
