What is it about?

Geopolymer Concrete is an alternative & eco-friendly material to prevent the Co2 emission from the production of cement. Manufactured-Sand (M-Sand) is an alternative material to prevent the scarcity of River sand. This paper mainly involve on research of fundamental properities of Geopolymer concrete using M-Sand to prove its a right choice in the replacement of Cement & River Sand respectively.

Why is it important?

This research focus on effective method to re-use the waste materials (Fly-ash) & parametric study of the unique properties of eco-friendly material (Geopolymer concrete using M-Sand) which is more cost effective and prevents Co2 emission and scarcity of River Sand.

Perspectives

This article is breakthrough in the field of civil engineering which talks about cement and River-Sand replacements. Geopolymer concrete is got effective properties to support the structures than Cement and River-Sand which is less cost, more strength and sustainbility.
