Geopolymer concrete is one of the best alternatives to the regular concrete.
In the process of making the geopolymer, concrete cement is replaced by the fly ash and the alkaline activator is added to it.
This study examines the effect of the elevated temperature curing on the compressive strength of Geopolymer concrete for the curing period of 24Hr, 48Hr, 72Hr.
This study also compares the compressive strength of the Geopolymer concrete with the ordinary Portland Cement concrete at a time interval of 3 days, 7 days and 28 days.
The Alkaline to fly ash ratio was kept same as the water/cement ratio in the case of ordinary Portland cement concrete.
