3. 3
 Geopolymer concrete is an innovative, eco-
friendly construction material.
 It is used as replacement of cement
concrete
 Commonly used binding materials are fly ash,
silica fumekali activators.

4. 4
 Coarse aggregate
 Fine aggregate
 Admixtures
 Alkaline activators
 Fly ash

5. 5
 workability
 High compressive strength
 Bond strength
 Low impact concrete
 Resistance against aggressive enviornment vironment

6.  Drying shrikange test
 Compressive strength test
 Creep test
 Modulus of elasticity &Poisson’s ratio

7. 7
 Low creep and shrinkage
 Environmental benefits
 Chemical resistance
 High strength
 Resistant to heat and cold

8. 8
 Chemicals like sodium hydroxide are harmful to
human beings.
 High cost for alkaline solution
 Geopolymerisation is sensitive so lacks
uniformity
 Difficult to create

9. 9
 Concrete pipes
 Pavements
 Retaining walls
 Water tanks
 Precast beam
PRECAST GEOPOLYMER RETAINING
WALLS FOR A PRIVATE RESIDENCE.

10. 10
 Geopolymer concrete is a promising construction
due to its low carbon dioxide emission
 High early strength, low creep and shrinkage, high acid and
fire resistance promotes its usage.
 Wide spread applications in precast industries due to
 Its high production in short duration
 less breakage during transportation
