Recent Research Trends in GGBS based Geopolymer Concrete

Abstract

Every year we are producing billion tons of concrete. Production of cement is responsible for too much of CO₂ production. Researchers have did a great job and found many ways to replace cement. For making geopolymer concrete by products of different industries may be used like. Fly ash, rice husk. In this investigation geopolymer concrete is prepared with GGBS. GGBS is a byproduct of steel industry. It holds the coarse and fine aggregates in the matrix. Workability of the geopolymer green concrete was not good. So adding of plasticizeris a good decision adopted Specimen are tested for compressive strength, flexure strength & split tensile strength test.
